A Kansas-based travel writer on our obsession with souvenirs.

Interview by Gina Kaufmann

 

A miniature Eiffel Tower, a plastic snowglobe that encases the White House, a seashell from the beach … we don’t give much thought to souvenirs. A travel writer, who just wrote a book about souvenirs, shares why they tell a story of their own.

Rolf Potts will be speaking about Souvenir on Friday, April 13 at The Raven Bookstore, 6 East 7th Street, Lawrence, Kansas 66044, 785-749-3300.
