SARATOGA SPRINGS — Lale Davidson will celebrate the official launch of her book, “Against the Grain,” at Northshire Bookstore Saratoga 6 p.m. on Wednesday, May 25.
“It’s an environmental novel with a mystical twist based on the true story of violent clashes in Northern California between corporate raiders, loggers, and activists during Redwood Summer 1990,” Davidson says. “Action-packed, transcendent, and timely, and the trees themselves have a surprisingly powerful voice.”
Davidson’s stories have appeared in The North American Review, Big Lucks, and The Collagist, among others. She is the recipient of the SUNY Chancellor’s Award for Scholarship and Creative Activities and teaches creative writing at SUNY Adirondack.
