Please join Edible Portland for an evening with Michael Pollan, presented by Powell's Books:

Tuesday, February 12 at 7 p.m.
Bagdad Theater
3702 SE Hawthorne, Portland

From the author of the bestselling The Omnivore's Dilemma comes In Defense of Food, a bracing and eloquent manifesto that shows readers how they might start making thoughtful food choices that will enrich their lives and enlarge their sense of what it means to be healthy. Pollan proposes a new (and very old) answer to the question of what we should eat that comes down to seven simple but liberating words: Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.

"[T]his powerfully argued, thoroughly researched and elegant manifesto cuts straight to the chase," hails Publishers Weekly.

Tickets: $21.95 (Includes admission and a copy of the book)
Available at: Bagdad Theater and Crystal Ballroom box offices, Ticketmaster.com, and all Ticketmaster outlets
