Join us in welcoming author Judith Stiles to the Louis T. Graves Memorial Public Library on Friday, May 15, at 2 PM. She will be here to read from her new book, “Hush Little Fire”. Secrets implode, and generations of lies boil over into deadly consequences when a suspicious fire breaks out on Cape Cod. This enthralling and darkly humorous debut novel of long-buried truths will captivate readers. Ms. Stiles writes essays, fiction, and news articles for the Italian publication Ytali Global, covering all things American. Her short stories and literary essays can be found in Europa Quotidiano, Hemingway Shorts, Kenyon Review (honorable mention), Room (first place, creative nonfiction competition 2024), The Ex-Puritan, and The New York Times. She lives with her partner in crime, who helps clean up the house when their 3 kids, Julia, Jane, and Johnny, come to visit.

The Louis T. Graves Memorial Public Library is located at 18 Maine Street, Kennebunkport. For further information, please call 207-967-2778 or visit www.graveslibrary.org.
