Friend and fellow tiki enthusiast, Michael Zadoorian had a reading from his new book, The Lost Tiki Palaces of Detroit at
the Book Beat earlier. Along with Michael was
Glenn Barr who was the cover artist for this new collection of Detroit based stories. A good time was had by all as they were both signing copies of the book, regaling us with their stories and reliving wonderful stories of their upbringing in the Detroit area.
