Rory Stewart will read from The Places in Between at the San Carlos Library on Wednesday, November 1 at 7:00 pm. Stewarts moving, poetic account of his 2002 walk across Afghanistan has been hailed as a travel classic by both the New York Times and the San Francisco Chronicle. Stewart describes the heroes and rogues, tribal elders and teenage soldiers, Taliban commanders and foreign-aid workers he met along the way. A book signing will follow the authors presentation. This program is part of One Book, One Community: San Mateo County Reads The Kite Runner and is free and open to the public. The San Carlos Library is located at 610 Elm Street, San Carlos CA 94070, and the telephone number is 650-591-0341.
