The unpretentious atmosphere of Blue Heron Books with its comfy chairs, wood shelving and creaky floors lends itself to a long slow, browsing session, but under that sleepy atmosphere vibrates a strong pulse. The store has a quaint, old-fashioned look with an up tempo vibe, because there is always something happening. The store is a hub for the community and a bastion of calm chaos where everyone is welcome, even the local dogs that drop by with their owners for a treat from the tin kept under the front counter.

Experience India…Second Night Added
As the first girl born to the Nachimada family in over 60 years, the beautiful Devi is the object of adoration of her entire family. Strong-willed and confident, she befriends the shy Devanna, a young boy whose mother has died under tragic circumstances. The two quickly become inseparable, until Devi meets Machu the tiger killer, a hunter of great repute and a man of much honour and pride. Soon they fall deeply in love, an attraction that drives a wedge between Devi and Devanna. It is this tangled relationship among the three that leads to a devastating tragedy—an event that forever changes their fates and has unforeseen and far-reaching consequences for generations to come.
Our new neighbour Lisa Hutchinson of The Passionate Cook’s Essentials (68 Brock Street W.) and our own Shelley Macbeth loved Tiger Hills by Sarita Mandanna so much that we got in touch with Penguin Canada and arranged an evening with Sarita.
Sarita and Lisa are going to collaborate on a menu that reflects the culinary tastes of the Coorg area in South-west India.
Sit and break bread with Sarita, discuss the book, discuss the food and go home with a signed copy of Tiger Hills and a copy of the evening’s recipes. Very limited seating. Wednesday, April 20, 2011.
