Thrity in Hudson on Thursday

Former BJ reporter Thrity Umrigar, the Babe from Bombay, will be reading from her latest book, “The Story Hour,” Thursday in the Hudson Public Library: Writes Thrity:

“Hi ABJers--Well, I've fantasized about a reunion but that hasn't happened. So. . . wanted to tell you guys that I'm reading at the Hudson Public Library on this Thursday, Sept. 11. If you're not too exhausted after work, maybe some of you can come? Would LOVE to see some of your beautiful faces there. It's at 7 p.m.”

Thrity’s previous novels are “Bombay Time” (2002), “The Space Between Us” (2007), “If Today be Sweet” (2008), “The Weight of Heaven” (2010) and “The World We Found” (2012), and all set in the country of her birth, as was her memoir, “First Darling of the Morning”  (2008).

Thrity teaches creative writing at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland.
