One More Page Books (2200 N. Westmoreland St., Arlington) will hold an abbreviated version of its monthly First Friday wine tasting on Nov. 1, a free event where attendees can sample new arrivals.
This month features a celebration of the Mexican holiday, the Day of the Dead, starting at 7 p.m. with a discussion by author Marion Winik. Known for bringing humor and wit to one of the most unavoidable of subjects — death — Winik’s critically-acclaimed writings have been combined into “The Big Book of the Dead.”
