SUMMARY:CANADIAN/MAINE AUTHOR SUSAN D. HANNAFORD - JUNE 26 @ 6:00 PM
DESCRIPTION:  \nWe are so excited to welcome back Susan Doherty Hannaford for the launch of her third book\, Monday Rent Boy.  Susan will be here at the Louis T. Graves Memorial Public Library\, 18 Maine Street\, Kennebunkport on Wednesday\, June 26 at 6:00 pm.  This event is free and open to the public. A reception with light refreshments will follow. \n \nSusan has a Bachelor of Science from Concordia University and studied journalism at Ryerson University where she was recommended for a job at Macleans Magazine. After Macleans\, she worked in Paris\, France for a digital publishing company\, Atex France\, freelancing for The International Herald Tribune\, La Tribune de Genève\, La Suisse\, and the Independent in London UK.  Back in Canada\, she started her own company\, On Location Productions\, and for 18 years worked in advertising.  During that time\, she studied creative writing at the University of Toronto\, and Concordia University.  Susan has numerous volunteer affiliations: the YMCA and the Douglas Institute and was a long-serving board member of the Royal Conservatory of Music in Toronto. She was a board member of the Quebec Writers’ Federation (QWF) in Montreal\, and Nazareth Community\, serving men and women with addictions and mental illness. As a committed volunteer\, she works with patients suffering from psychosis through Montreal’s Douglas Institute and has done significant research in the area of bipolar illness and paranoid schizophrenia.  In Toronto\, she created an annual event for the Royal Conservatory of Music\, in a sustained effort to raise their endowment to allow all Canadian would-be professional musicians to study on full bursary. \nPremise of Monday Rent Boy: \nAt eight years of age\, Arthur Barnes and Ernie Castlefrank find themselves on the same altar boy at St. Nick’s\, a situation that readies an unlikely friendship. Father Zipernowski— a pastor referred to as The Zipper\, has given both boys a sterling crucifix that marks them as children conditioned to provide sexual favors for clergy members in the counties of Somerset and Avon.  As Ernie and Arthur slip into lives of petty degeneracy; dope-smoking thieves who steal from the collection plate\, local shops\, parked cars\, and department stores in nearby Bristol\, they laugh off their inner humiliation without ever speaking publicly\, or privately about what has been happening in the vestry. Arthur’s book-thieving leads to an unlikely partnership with Marina Phillips\, the owner of the town bookshop. He has the chance to reinvent himself as a young book critic with eyes to becoming an English major\, a professor\, and a scholar. Ernie’s leg-up comes in the form of a pawnshop owner\, a man with a desire to profit from the exploitation of children in The Pint Room\, a website on the Internet. \n \n\nFor more information\, please call 967-2778 or visit our website:  www.graveslibrary.org

The group has organized a series of 10 book signings\, all free and open to the public so that people can purchase books and meet the authors. There will be fiction writers\, children’s book authors\, non-fiction writers\, and poets among the participants. \nThis is a wonderful opportunity for Maine book lovers to support local authors\, and most importantly\, to help our fellow Mainers as they begin to heal and recover. \nAll of the participating authors have agreed to donate all\, or most\, of their proceeds from these events to help the healing and recovery efforts in Lewiston. All are volunteering because they care. \nThe authors scheduled to appear at the Louis T. Graves Memorial Public Library are Bruce Robert Coffin\, William Chanler\, Irene Drago\, Maya Williams\, Jean Flahive\, Jennifer Lunden\, Mike Bove\, Susanne Dunlap\, Mike Culver\, Jennifer Dupree\, Brenda Pollock\, Skip Simonds\, Kate Kearns\, Matt Cost\, David Florig\, Jason Trask\, Norma Salway\, Robert Spencer\, Didi Cooper\, Annaliese Jakimides\, Barry Somes\, Wayne Burton\, Maryann Cocca-Leffler…and others! \nThe Graves Library is located at 18 Maine Street\, Kennebunkport.

SUMMARY:RICHARD RUSSO AND ANDRE DUBUS III @ VINEGAR HILL - OCTOBER 19 - 5:30 PM
DESCRIPTION:RICHARD RUSSO AND ANDRE DUBUS\, III:  IN CONVERSATION \n \nTHURSDAY\, OCTOBER 19\, 2023  \nVinegar Hill Music Theater\, 53 Old Post Road\, Arundel Maine \nGeneral admission ticket is $50.00   \nPURCHASE TICKETS NOW \n  \n  \n  \nA (cash bar) cocktail hour and book sales will start at 5:30 pm followed by an intimate conversation with award-winning authors—and dear friends—Richard Russo and Andre Dubus\, III at 6:30 pm.  \nCome autumn\, Dubus and Russo will have just released brand new novels. Dubus’ Such Kindness\, the story of a working-class white man’s terrible fall\, has been called “A powerful portrait of recovered dignity” by People magazine. In Somebody’s Fool\, Russo returns to North Bath\, in upstate New York\, and to the characters that captured the hearts and imaginations of millions of readers in his beloved bestsellers Nobody’s Fool and Everybody’s Fool. \nAs always\, both novels brim with the two authors’ trademark heartrending observations and—especially in Russo’s case—wry humor. These are two masters in peak form. \nRusso and Dubus have read to rapt audiences at Graves Library over the years\, but this very special evening marks the first time the longtime friends will be appearing together in Kennebunkport. \nModerating the conversation will be former Graves Library board member Joshua Bodwell\, editorial director of Godine and Black Sparrow Press. \nThis event is being sponsored by our friends at Vinegar Hill Music Theater. \nPrint : A Bookstore will be selling a variety of the authors’ works during the first hour of the event.  Both Russo and Dubus\, III will stay after their talk to personalize any purchases. \n  \nRichard Russo is the author of ten acclaimed novels\, including Everybody’s Fool and That Old Cape Magic; two collections of stories; and the memoir Elsewhere. In 2002 he received the Pulitzer Prize for Empire Falls\, which\, like Nobody’s Fool\, was adapted into a multiple-award-winning miniseries; in 2017\, he received France’s Grand Prix de Littérature Américaine. His novel\, Somebody’s Fool\, was released in July 2023. \nAndre Dubus III’s books include the New York Times’ bestsellers House of Sand and Fog\, The Garden of Last Days\, and his memoir\, Townie. His recent novel\, Gone So Long\, was named to many “Best Books” lists\, including The Boston Globe’s “Twenty Best Books of 2018.” In April 2023\, Dubus served as editor of Reaching Inside: 50 Acclaimed Authors on 100 Unforgettable Short Stories. His novel\, Such Kindness\, was released in June 2023. A collection of personal essays\, Ghost Dogs: On Killers and Kin\, is due in winter 2024. \n  \nVinegar Hill Music Theatre is located at: 53 Old Post Road\, Arundel\, Maine 04046\, Tel: 207-985-5552.  The proceeds of all tickets sold benefit the Louis T. Graves Memorial Public Library. \nPURCHASE TICKETS
