SUMMARY:PNBA Award Presentation for Leyna Krow with "Sinkhole\, and Other Inexplicable Voids"
DESCRIPTION:We are so happy to be hosting Leyna Krow to celebrate her 2026 Pacific Northwest Book Award for “Sinkhole\, and Other Inexplicable Voids”! Come on down to party with us as Leyna is presented with her award. There will\, of course\, be nibbles.\nSaturday\, January 31st at 7PM at Auntie’s Bookstore\n(402 W Main Ave) \nThis event is free and open to the public.\nRSVP via our website \nAbout the book \nWhat do we owe our family and friends in times of wild uncertainty? \nThat’s the question the women of Leyna Krow’s beguiling\, darkly fabulist story collection grapple with as they strive to be good mothers\, daughters\, sisters\, grandmothers\, wives\, and companions in a world that is constantly shifting around them. Set in the Pacific Northwest\, these stories blend high concept magic with the sometimes subtle\, other times glaring\, realities of climate change. \nAs protagonists contend with doppelgänger babies\, hordes of time travelers\, mysterious portals\, and supernatural siblings\, there lurks in the background the effects of the region’s rapidly shifting environment. There are wildfires\, wind storms\, unrelenting heat\, disrupted butterfly migration patterns\, a new plague\, and a catastrophe on the slopes of Mount Rainier that reverberates through three generations of a single family over the course of a half dozen linked stories. \nWith Krow’s signature blend of sardonic whimsy and unsettling insight\, Sinkhole\, and Other Inexplicable Voids imagines the rules to be broken\, choices to be made\, and even crimes to be had for the sake of the people\, and places\, we love.
