The phrase "lost cities" brings to mind romantic visions of crumbling architecture, creeping vines, and the toil of archeologists and historians digging in the ruins... but what can we learn about the stories of the actual people who inhabited these places, and the everyday existence of these cities when they were not yet lost, but thriving metropolises?
We are very excited to host Annalee Newitz, science journalist and author of the new book "Four Lost Cities: A Secret History of the Urban Age" for an intimate look at stories of four real lives lived in cities lost to time.
Tuesday, June 8
Odd Salon Presents: Lost City Stories with Annalee Newitz The Basket-maker, the Sex Worker, the Servant, and the Archaeologist: 9,000 Years of City Life - Stories of four ordinary women working in four great cities, separated by thousands of years and thousands of kilometers.
