Once again it was a title that caught our eye, leading us to a the book that was even more intriguing than the title. The book is How Not to Drown in a Glass of Water. The author is Angie Cruz. The book is a fascinating character study of Cara Romero, a Dominican immigrant who came to this country more than 25 years ago. She needs a job. There are 12 chapters— each a transcription of one of Cara's meetings with a professional job counselor. You come to know Cara - or do you really? As she talks to the counselor and tells her/him not just about herself but about the immigrant community of which she is a part? A reader, we believe, will thoroughly enjoy getting to know Cara. A listener to The Book Case will enjoy getting to know Angie Cruz. Instead of an independent bookstore this week we talk to each other about books we've read this year that we loved, but might not have been suited to a podcast.

If you loved the film Yesterday, you'll find echoes of it in this novel. I spoke to Anna about the setting of her book in both time and place – 1960s Liverpool – how being untidy can help with creativity, the challenges of writing historical fiction, and more. Books Mentioned on the Podcast: Bonnie and Stan, by Anna Stuart She's Leaving Home, by Edwina Currie Four Minutes to Save a Life, by Anna Stuart The Wisdom of Sally Red Shoes, by Ruth Hogan The Keeper of Lost Things, by Ruth Hogan The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared, by Jonas Jonasson  Headlines and Hedgerows, by John Craven Please Miss, We're Boys, by Susan Elkin Unscripted, by Claire Handscombe (A note on my book links: they usually take you to Amazon, and I get a few pence per sale at no extra cost to you if you click them and buy from there, which will help me make this podcast viable long-term.

The Sandwich Weekly Podcast Episode 10. Activities and events from Friday July 12 through Thursday July 25 Hello again and welcome to the Sandwich Weekly Podcast. This is Episode 10, covering activities and events in and around Sandwich for the period Friday July 12 through Thursday July 25. There are many activities and events in the Sandwich Weekly Podcast and I’m always looking for new ways to make it easier for you to find what you’re interested in. If you’re using a podcast player that supports chapter markers such as, Overcast, Pocket Casts, or the Apple Podcast app, you can skip directly to any day in the audio file. This, unfortunately, isn’t a feature that’s available on the podcasts web page. On the podcast web page you can scroll down the show notes to look for particular days of activities. You can also use the standard search keys (ctrl-f on pc or cmd-f on Mac) to enter your search terms. This week I introduced a new feature that will, hopefully, make the show notes easier to navigate. At the top of the show notes there are shortcuts to go directly to a particular day in the notes. This way you won’t need to scroll down the list to find the day in which you are interested. Here’s the schedule of activities and events for the next two weeks… Friday July 12 Saturday July 13 Sunday July14 Monday July 15 Tuesday July 16 Wednesday July 17 Thursday July 18 Friday July 19 Saturday July 20 Monday July 22 Tuesday July 23 Wednesday July 24 Thursday July 25 Friday July 12 Computer Class – Computer Basics - 10:30 – noon, Friday at the Sandwich Public Library.

The Sandwich Weekly Podcast Episode 9. Activities and events from Friday July 5 through Thursday July 18 Hello again and welcome to the Sandwich Weekly Podcast. This is Episode 9, covering activities and events in and around Sandwich for the period Friday July 5 through Thursday July 18. There are many activities and events in the Sandwich Weekly Podcast and I’m always looking for new ways to make it easier for you to find what you’re interested in. If you’re using a podcast player that supports chapter markers such as, Overcast, Pocket Casts, or the Apple Podcast app, you can skip directly to any day in the audio file. This, unfortunately, isn’t a feature that’s available on the podcasts web page. On the podcast web page you can scroll down the show notes to look for particular days of activities. You can also use the standard search keys (ctrl-f on pc or cmd-f on Mac) to enter your search terms. This week I introduced a new feature that will, hopefully, make the show notes easier to navigate. At the top of the show notes there are shortcuts to go directly to a particular day in the notes. This way you won’t need to scroll down the list to find the day in which you are interested. Here’s the schedule of activities and events for the next two weeks… Friday July 5 Saturday July 6 Sunday July 7 Monday July 8 Tuesday July 9 Wednesday July 10 Thursday July 11 Friday July 12 Saturday July 13 Sunday July14 Monday July 15 Tuesday July 16 Wednesday July 17 Thursday July 18 Friday July 5 American Legion Fish Fry- 5 to 7:30 pm Friday at the Sheridan American Legion Post 729.
