Teen Advisory Group
|
|
| |
|
Come to a meeting of our new Teen Advisory Group! You will have the chance to let your voice be heard: tell us what you want to see at the library, which books and movies we should order, what programs and events we should hold.
Being a member of this group also counts as community service hours for many organizations.
No registration necessary, just bring your great ideas! We will meet in the teen section of the library, and snacks will be served.

Book Discussion: Olive Kitteridge
|
|
| |
|
Olive Kitteridge, a retired schoolteacher, deplores the changes in her little town of Crosby, Maine, and in the world at large, but she doesn’t always recognize the changes in those around her: a lounge musician, a former student, Olive’s own adult child, and her husband, Henry, who finds his loyalty to his marriage both a blessing and a curse.
As the townspeople grapple with their problems, mild and dire, Olive is brought to a deeper understanding of herself and her life --- sometimes painfully, but always with ruthless honesty. Olive Kitteridge offers profound insights into the human condition --- its conflicts, its tragedies and joys, and the endurance it requires.
