Aura Imbarus presented a dynamic and heartwarming discussion about her experiences published in Out of the Transylvania Nigh: A Story of Tyranny, Freedom, Love and Identity at the Torrance Public Library. Her ability to "read" the audience of students, travelers, educators and curious readers was uncanny as she garnered their attention for over two hours, and they wanted more! I have never seen such a diverse audience react so positively to an author talk- but Ms. Imbarus' enthusiasm proves to be contagious…expressions of laughter and disbelief filled the room as Ms. Imbarus recollected her travels from Sibiu to the United States and subsequent attempts to secure a job, home, mate and, ultimately, happiness. I would highly recommend Ms. Imbarus for small and large groups alike as she connects to listeners' minds and captures their hearts.
