Kris Holloway, Author of Monique and the Mango Rains
Saturday, April 10, 2010

Monique and the Mango Rains is the true story of the life and death of a remarkable West African midwife, seen through the eyes of a young Peace Corps Volunteer who worked side-by- side with her, birthing babies and caring for mothers, in a remote, impoverished village. It is a rare tale of friendship that ireaches beyond borders to vividly and irrevocably unite another woman’s world with our own.

Please join us as Kris Holloway recounts her story and most importantly, Monique’s story, of life in Mali and the friendship that grew from these two women who seemingly had nothing in common but found their lives forever entwined.  Your definition of sisterhood will never be the same! Books will be available for signing.

This program comes to our area thanks to the generosity of our local Cultural Councils.
