AUTHOR EVENTS THROUGH THURSDAY

■ Catherine Mckenzie, “Please Join Us.”

A lawyer whose life is on the rocks joins an exclusive women’s networking group to help revive her career. All goes according to plan, with new clients and other helpful dividends — until, in return, she’s asked to help cover up a crime. 2 p.m. Saturday. In-person talk, signing. Free. Foxtale Book Shoppe, 105 E. Main St., Suite 138, Woodstock, 770-516-9989. foxtalebookshoppe.com

■ Myriam J.A. Chancy, “What Storm, What Thunder.” Award-winning author Chancy masterfully charts the inner lives of a diverse cast of characters affected by an earthquake of 7.0 magnitude that rocks the capital of Haiti, Port-au-prince. Brilliantly crafted, fiercely imagined and deeply haunting, her novel is a singular, stunning record, a reckoning of the heartbreaking trauma of disaster, and an unforgettable testimony to the tenacity of the human spirit. 6:30 p.m. Sunday. Conversation on Crowdcast. Free (donations welcome). Charis Books & More, Auburn Avenue Research Library on African American Culture and History. charisbooksandmore.com

■ Robyn Henderson-espinoza, “Body Becoming: A Path to Our Liberation.” The body that Henderson-espinoza inhabits is a nonbinary body, a trans body, a body in two races — and a body continually in discovery. Their story mixes memoir and faith, somatics theory and body practice, to steer us through territory both familiar and difficult as we discover embodiment as the primary place of deep wisdom. 7:30 p.m. Monday. Conversation on Crowdcast. Free. Charis Books & More. charisbooksandmore.com

■ Kung Li Sun, “Begin the World Over.” In this intriguing alternative history of the Caribbean slave rebellions in the 1790s, the author imagines a world in which the Founders’ greatest fear — that Black and Indigenous people might join forces to undo the newly formed United States of America — comes true. With Mary Hooks. 7:30 p.m. Wednesday. Conversation on Crowdcast. Free. Charis Books & More. charisbooksandmore.com
