SUMMARY:Leading Men with author Christopher Castellani
DESCRIPTION:Virtual Event – click here to sign up. \nJoin author Christopher Castellani for a presentation of his book Leading Men and the real-life characters who feature in it. \n“In July of 1953\, at a glittering party thrown by Truman Capote in Portofino\, Italy\, Tennessee Williams and his longtime lover Frank Merlo meet Anja Blomgren\, a mysteriously taciturn young Swedish beauty and aspiring actress. Their encounter will go on to alter all of their lives. \nTen years later\, Frank revisits the tempestuous events of that fateful summer from his deathbed in Manhattan\, where he waits anxiously for Tennessee to visit him one final time. Anja\, now legendary film icon Anja Bloom\, lives as a recluse in the present-day U.S.\, until a young man connected to the events of 1953 lures her reluctantly back into the spotlight after he discovers she possesses the only surviving copy of Williams’s final play.” \n*This program will NOT be recorded* \nThis program is sponsored by the Friends of the Joshua Hyde Public Library in Sturbridge\, Charlton Public Library and the Jacob Edwards Library in Southbridge\, who we are partnering with for this event.

SUMMARY:Imagine 2200: Climate Fiction for Future Ancestors
DESCRIPTION:Imagine 2200: Climate Fiction for Future Ancestors with Tory Stephens Climate Fiction Creative Manager for Grist \nWEDNESDAY\, SEPTEMBER 27th 6:30—7:00 PM EST\nVirtual Event: Email clapp@cwmars.org for Zoom link! \nJoin Tory Stephens of Grist Magazine\, an independent non-profit media organization focused on the climate crisis\, and learn how he created Imagine 2200: Climate Fiction for Future Ancestors. Imagine is a storytelling initiative that calls for fiction writers to envision the next 180 years of equitable climate progress\, imagining intersectional worlds of abundance\, adaptation\, reform\, and hope. The initiative also seeks narratives that center solutions from the communities most impacted by the climate crisis\, and stories that are rooted in cultural authenticity (a deep sense of place\, customs\, cuisine\, and more) and rich subcultures that uplift traditions not often seen in mainstream literature. Over the course of three years the project has encouraged 3\,000 plus writers from 91 countries to submit stories\, and of which 700\,000 people have read. Writers and readers alike will enjoy this climate justice romp. \nAbout the Speaker: Tory Stephens creates opportunities that transform organizations and shift culture. He is a resource generator and community builder for social justice issues\, people\, and movements. He currently works at Grist Magazine as their climate fiction creative manager\, and uses storytelling to champion climate justice\, and imagine green\, clean\, and just futures. In another life he owned a kick-butt streetwear company\, and he would have gotten away with eating the last cookie too\, if it weren’t for his three meddling kids. \n  \nProgram is part of Climate Prep Week\, and is hosted by libraries through out Massachusetts and is coordinated with CREW and Blue Marble Librarians.  This year\, CREW’s theme recognizes the interconnectedness of climate change with other injustices such as health\, race\, food\, ableism\, and so many more. The impacts of extreme weather affect all of us\, but it’s also important to recognize that the consequences are not experienced equally. CREW is planning on hosting 3-5 central events this year focussing on climate education and uplifting the work of organizations supporting environmental justice (EJ) communities.

SUMMARY:Lynne Reeves In Conversation With Lisa Genova

Learn more about Reeves HERE. \nAbout the Book: The Dangers of an Ordinary Night is an exploration of the explosive family secrets that are often hidden in plain sight. On a chilly fall evening at the prestigious Performing Arts High School of Boston\, best friends Tali Carrington and June Danforth go missing after auditioning for a play. They’re last seen in grainy\, out-of-focus surveillance footage that shows them walking away from the school. Two days later in a town south of Boston\, Tali is found disoriented and traumatized by the ocean’s edge\, while June is pronounced dead at the scene. Tali’s mother\, Nell\, is so bent on protecting her daughter from further emotional harm that she ignores rumors of her husband’s involvement and enlists the help of Cynthia Rawlins\, a reunification therapist with personal insight into the riptide that hides below the surface of every unsuspecting family. Meanwhile\, Detective Fitz Jameson uncovers a criminal undertow involving the high school’s overachieving students\, and finally sees an opportunity for personal redemption from a secret that’s haunted him for years. As Nell\, Cynthia\, and Fitz confront their own contributions to the scandals that beleaguer them\, their lives turn out to be more deeply intertwined than they’d ever imagined. In the end\, they must decide what lengths they’re willing to go to protect the people they love while also saving themselves. \nAbout The Interviewer: Lisa Genova is the New York Times bestselling author of the novels Still Alice\, Left Neglected\, Love Anthony\, Inside the O’Briens\, and Every Note Played. Still Alice was adapted into an Oscar-winning film starring Julianne Moore\, Alec Baldwin\, and Kristen Stewart.
