<h3>**This event has been moved to Thursday, November 4th at 5 PM**</h3>Savoy Bookshop &amp; Café presents an author talk and Q&amp;A with Gunilla Norris for the new poetry collection, <a href="https://www.banksquarebooks.com/book/9781953340283" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Calling the Creatures</a>! About the BookGunilla Norris has written a book that spans decades of her life. She invites us to wonder what calls us into recollection. It is always a mystery when an inner voice asks for attention. In a long life, that call can be insistent and want a welcome for a vast array of experiences. Gunilla likens this to the calling of farm animals back to the barn after foraging all day which she witnessed in northern Sweden as a child.Meaningful experiences, be they losses, loves, queries or epiphanies, want sanctuary. If the doors of the heart are open, the recollections can enter again, come back home so to speak and be recognized as the poems of a life.About Gunilla NorrisGunilla Norris’ parents were world travelers in the Swedish diplomatic corps and so she grew up essentially in three places: Argentina, Sweden and the United States. As a child she was given a rich exposure to different languages and cultures.She received her B.A. from Sarah Lawrence College and her M.S. from Bridgeport University in the field of human development. She is a mother and a grandmother. She has been a psychotherapist in private practice for more than thirty years and has felt privileged to accompany many people on their journeys to growth and healing. Her special love has been teaching meditation and leading contemplative workshops of many kinds.As a writer Gunilla has published eleven children’s books, one book of poetry and six books on spirituality including: Being Home, Becoming Bread, Inviting Silence, A Mystic Garden, Simple Ways and Sheltered in the Heart.About This EventThis event will take place in person at Savoy Bookshop &amp; Café.
