"When I first tasted absinthe in 1996, my immediate question was, 'Why is this illegal?' That single question became a decades-long investigation into the myths, history, and extraordinary cultural influence of the Green Fairy. That investigation became The Green Fairy's Canvas: Absinthe's Influence on Art and Culture, and I'm honored to debut the paperback edition at Tales of the Cocktail before launching the Kickstarter campaign for the signed hardcover edition."
Conference attendees can meet Absinthia and preview the book during scheduled signings at the Ritz-Carlton, New Orleans, Tales' host hotel:
Absinthia will also appear at Tales' official Happy Hour event on Wednesday, July 22, from 5:30–7:30 p.m. at Pour House, where attendees can sample her award-winning absinthe and have books signed.
