Join us for a talk, reading, and signing with Meredith Fuller, writer, poet, and debut author of Quarry. Copies of the book will be for sale by the author following the event.
"After losing her father, a Finnish-Irish girl slowly comes to understand her family and personal history in Fuller’s debut novel. In 1973, 7-year-old Rose Virkkunen is blind—a psychological reaction to her father’s unexplained disappearance. A therapist helps to cure her, but Rose continues her quest to see things more clearly, especially through the art of photography. (Illustrator Anderson (Vector, 2011, etc.)provides Rose’s artworks, which nicely bolster the story.) Rose slowly pieces together information and stories from both the Finnish and Irish sides of her family: “She was interested in history, but not the history her teachers taught. She was interested in the histories of people she knew.” The place that she loves most is Summer Hall (aka Camp Karelia), where Finnish families come for the summer season; there, they stay in cabins, enjoy traditional saunas, and preserve their heritage by telling stories from The Kalevala, Finland’s national epic. As she nears adulthood, Rose struggles with her sexuality and gets drawn into a destructive relationship. Meanwhile, she comes to understand the struggles of an older generation of immigrants, including the hard work that they did in quarries and shipyards. By the novel’s end, she gains fresh insights about her father and herself. Fuller writes lyrically about a seemingly ghost-haunted world, often depicted in Rose’s photographs, which sometimes combine phantomlike images. The book’s opening is full of allusions whose meanings are initially obscure; for example, in an early therapy session, Fuller writes that Rose “felt them collecting in her mouth, the pieces of cedar bark. Her mouth flooded….And the white reindeer flew up, and the white reindeer flew down. Time wobbled and stretched out behind it like a rubber band, until time snapped.” The meanings, however, are effectively revealed bit by bit as part of a mystery that readers investigate alongside Rose. Along the way, every line and image demands and rewards readers’ full attention. A rich, multilayered, and slowly unfolding literary work." ~ Kirkus Reviews
"A bold, risky, and satisfying debut, with a rich cast of characters and wonderful, evocative writing. This is a joy to read!"
- Fred Leebron, author of In the Middle of All This
ABOUT MEREDITH FULLER:
"My heart is a migrant. Perforce I moved to Nebraska. By happy startled choice I live where the kindness of strangers is usually genuine, and niceness is like a nervous tic, or a dessert you don’t really have room for, but it would be rude to say no. I left the ocean and a big city for a home in Omaha, my lunge line tethered to a big sky. Rolling prairie makes me swoon, the edge of the world cresting, disappearing, and reappearing, and I might just end up driving right into the clouds and getting seriously lost. I like being a stranger in a strange land. We are all the other, even if we don’t know it. In the Mayan language, in la’ketch means I am another yourself. As a writer, I hope to make you fall in love with strangers, including people you don’t approve of."

Join us for a free, informal presentation is co-sponsored by the Famouth Public Library and MBL Associates.
What happens when you don’t like what your genes say? “You edit the message, of course,” says the squid. We grow up with the concept that we are what our genes dictate. Everything required to make us, and allow us to live our lives - from start to finish - is written in our DNA. Small portions of these instructions are copied into RNA as we need them, and then translated into proteins, the machines that do the actual work. This is the central dogma of all biology.
Sometimes we are happy about what our genes say—think Michael Phelps upon receiving his 28th Olympic medal, or a parent learning their child received a 1600 on their SAT. For those with a genetic disease like Cystic Fibrosis, the feeling is different. Is there anything that can be done? If you’re a cephalopod, yes. Squid, octopus and cuttlefish have developed a strategy for changing genetic information on the fly, as it passes through RNA. They use it at an astounding level, primarily in their brains. To what end do they use this trick? Can we learn from cephalopods how we might edit our own genetic information when it suits us?
Senior Scientist Joshua Rosenthal is a neurobiologist who studies how marine organisms adapt to the physical environment. His research focuses on developing new, genetically tractable marine model organisms and understanding how they are affected by a changing environment. His expertise is in RNA editing. For the last 25 years, he has studied the genetics of cephalopods, specifically how RNA editing regulates the excitability of their nerve cells. Currently, he is investigating how changes in the environment affect RNA editing, both in cephalopods and in other emerging marine model systems. He is also developing methods to control and target RNA editing with the goal of functionally correcting disease mutations in human cells. Rosenthal conducted research at the MBL in the 1990s and was later a research fellow. He was recruited to the resident scientist program in fall 2016.
