Virtual event on Zoom. Registrants will be sent a Zoom link upon registration.

Join us for a lively discussion with author Gary Kamiya and artist Paul Madonna as they talk about their new, bestselling book Spirits of San Francisco: Voyages Through the Unknown City.

Marrying image and text in a unique way, Kamiya's captivating narratives and Madonna's masterful pen-and-ink drawings breathe life into San Francisco sites both iconic and obscure. The book is both a visual feast and a detailed, personal, loving, informed portrait of San Francisco from two critically acclaimed contemporary chroniclers of this beloved city.

Gary Kamiya (Cool Gray City of Love: 49 Views of San Francisco) writes a popular history column for the SF Chronicle. As co-founder of Salon.com and former executive editor of San Francisco magazine, Kamiya has been a fixture on the Bay Area literary scene for more than 30 years.

Award-winning artist and author Paul Madonna (All Over Coffee and Everything Is Its Own Reward) is the creator of the Emit Hopper Mystery Series. His unique brand of combining images and stories has been heralded as "an all new art form," and celebrated internationally.
