Welcome to the month of March 2005 the month of St. Patrick’s Day and Easter this year. Come Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day on Friday March 11, 6:30-8:30 P.M. at Logos Bookstore when Michael Ward accordionist/raconteur will hold forth with wonderful music and blarney. Refreshments will be served.
Meanwhile shop the store for your St. Patrick’s Day and Easter cards and gifts and books related to these celebrations. Logos has a wonderful collection of Celtic books from different editions of The Book Of Kells to books on Merlin, the Holy Grail, Celtic. Princesses and Celtic Christian Spirituality, the latter covered by such authors as John Newell, and David Adam among others. Also available are cds of Celtic music. There are biographies of St. Patrick, as well, for adult and child. Irish and Irish American authors such as James Joyce, Samuel Beckett, Roddy Doyle, J.P. Donleavy and Frank and Malachi McCourt among others are well represented. And there is a selection of Irish travel and history books.
For Lent and Easter there are many books about Jesus, his life, his death on the cross and his resurrection. There are also Easter books for children both religious (Jesus among other subjects) and secular (bunny rabbits, other animals and springtime to name a few topics.). Logos also carries icons and colorful Ukrainian wooden Easter Eggs. It is not too early to shop for Passover, celebrated this year in April, either. Logos carries cards, Haggadahs and other related books. For general gift giving Logos now offers fine lined and unlined journals ranging from fine leaf and parchment covered books to notebooks with covers featuring rabbits, cats, and owls among other designs.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Happy Easter! Happy Passover!
