Monday, October 24th, 7pm: Author Jon Mingle talks about his book, Fire and Ice: Soot, Solidarity & Survival on the Roof of the World. Amazon says, "High in the Himalayan valley of Zanskar in northwest India sits a village as isolated as the legendary Shangri-La. Long fed by runoff from glaciers and lofty snowfields, Kumik―a settlement of thirty nine mud brick homes―has survived and thrived in one of the world's most challenging settings for a thousand years. But now its people confront an existential threat: chronic, crippling drought, which leaves the village canal dry and threatens to end their ancient culture of farming and animal husbandry."
