  4. Miami Book Fair weekend: Literally yours

    It's not even the weekend, and the Miami Book Fair International has so far delivered a who's who of celebrated authors in Tom Wolfe, Junot Diaz, Sandra Cisneros and others. Literary giants though they are, consider them a palate cleanser to what really draws the glut of book lovers to downtown Miami: The weeklong fair's most-popular and best-recognized feature, the open-air sprawl of booksellers and music known as the Street Fair.

    It’s easy to view “Astray,” the new story collection by Irish writer Emma Donoghue, as a retreat from her previous book, 2010’s “Room,” which has sold more than a million copies, was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize and made its author a literary star. Inspired by the case of Elisabeth Fritzl, an Austrian woman who was imprisoned in a cellar for more than two decades by her father, the novel tells the story of a 5-year-old boy who from birth has been held captive in a room with his mother.

  6. Junot Diaz is on fire

    Junot Diaz is no stranger to South Florida, having appeared at the Miami Book Fair International and the Key West Literary Seminar on numerous occasions. But his familiarity with Fort Lauderdale, a place he praises with only a touch of good-natured sarcasm, predates his literary celebrity.

  7. Miami's cultural transformation

    It's Saturday night, and though a drizzle threatens, the lawn is jammed with children snoozing in strollers, couples sprawling on picnic blankets, teens taking a break from skateboarding. The star appears — not some retread boomer rocker but high-octane conductor Michael Tilson Thomas, affiliated with in London and San Francisco, and Miami's New World Symphony, a prestigious youth development academy.
