24	25 Christopher Ransom -- "Killing Ghost" Start: 7:30 pm *Christopher Ransom will speak about and sign his new book, Killing Ghost, on Monday, June 25th at 7:30pm.* About the book: James Hastings once enjoyed a career pretending to be someone else. But when his wife Stacey dies, James finds himself spiraling into grief. Salvation comes in the form of Annette, a beautiful widow who moves into the house next door. James and Annette bond quickly over the spousal losses they have suffered, but as their romance escalates, Annette begins to exhibit uncanny manners and desires that belong to Stacey. Killing Ghost is at once a descent into psychological terror, a midnight meditation of the addictive nature of love, and a novel that redefines the ghost story for a culture obsessed with dark entertainments. This is a FREE event, open to all!	26 Tsoknyi Rinpoche -- "Open Heart, Open Mind" Start: 7:00 pm *Tsoknyi Rinpoche will speak about and sign his new book, Open Heart, Open Mind, at UNITY OF BOULDER on Tuesday, June 26th at 7:00pm.* About the book: In Open Heart, Open Mind, Tsoknyi Rinpoche explains that a life free of fear, pain, insecurity, and doubt is not only possible, it’s our birthright. We long for peace, for the ability to love and be loved openly and freely, and for the confidence and clarity to meet the various challenges we face in our daily lives. As he recounts his own efforts to strike a balance between the promptings of his heart and an obligation to preserve and protect the teachings of Tibetan Buddhism, Rinpoche provides a bridge between ancient wisdom and modern life, and encourages each of us to rediscover the openness, fearlessness, and love that is the essence of our own life. This is a FREE event happening at Unity of Boulder Church (2855 Folsom Street Boulder, CO 80304).
