April Authors at Cody's

One of the joys of living in Berkeley is all the people who UC and related institutions bring in to talk, often for free. I just got the Cody's Books calendar for April, and it is a stellar line-up of authors. Here are my picks:

• Alston Chase on Unabomber: The Making Of An American Terrorist.    Thursday, April 3
• Candace Falk, Barry Pateman, and Jessica Moran present Emma Goldman: A Documentary History Of The American Years, Volume One: Made For America.    Monday, April 7
• John Murray reads from A Few Short Notes On Tropical Butterflies.    Wednesday, April 9
