The biggest crowd yet, perhaps not surprising given that this is my home territory, where I went to high school and college. Lots of familiar faces and family friends, thanks to my mother's indefatigable promotional skills! That's Mr. David Schrayer, front left.
I read from a chapter in which I described eating a sandwich apparently filled with dirt before exploring the interconnectedness of the afro-Cuban mythology relating to the enormous ceiba trees, and the rare endemic Giant kingbird, a flycatcher that breeds only in them. Then I took questions and read a short and, if I say so myself, hilarious bit about contraband cheese sales beside the central highway.
