Book reading by Sachiko Hamada
at Harwood Museum of Art
Harwood Artist-in-Residence Sachiko
Hamada will be reading from her recently published novel "A
Forest in F Minor" on Thursday, December 6 at 7 PM
at The Harwood Museum of Art of the University of New
Mexico (238 Ledoux Street, Taos, NM). This program in free
to Members & UNM Community or $8.
Hamada explains: "For my
Harwood talk I plan to share my life journey with colorful, funny,
and bitter episodes up to why I ended up writing a novel, "Forest
in F Minor," which I never dreamed of writing.
"I also plan to talk about
the Japanese culture I grew up with, the encounter to American
counterculture as a magazine editor, a feminist movement in the
80's Japan, my trip to San Francisco and Peru, my Chicago college
life, and a vivid dream that brought me to New York City. Then
I will talk about a Japanese National TV station I worked for
as a video-editor in a evening news team, a friendship with homeless
people which led me to be an award-winning "Inside Life
Outside" documentary maker, and a script for a dramatic
feature-length film - "The Nail That Sticks Up," a
companion to "Forest in F Minor," which I hope to getting
made soon. And finally why I'm in Taos now - a mysterious alignment
with spirits."
