Los Angeles Book Launch of The Lost Bali Stories -Volume I & II  by Leslie Anne Franklin 

This entertaining collection of true tales comes direct from the lips of an eclectic mix of youthful vagabonds, rainbow gypsies, artists, giddy optimists, cosmic healers and colorful misfits who unwittingly participated in an incredible cross-cultural cosmic movement on Bali between 1970 to 1995, before mass tourism changed the face of the island drastically. Written from hindsight, they are tinged with memories of a bygone era and testimonies to Bali’s transformative powers. Come meet Leslie and some of the writers April 2 from 5:30pm to 7:30pm. Dress Bali-Style! Topanga Living Cafe, 1704 N. Topanga Canyon Blvd., Topanga. RSVP is required for this private event. 1 424-382-9351
