Discuss Broken Teaglass, Monday, October 18th at7pm
Join us Monday, November 15th at 7pm in the Hilton Garden Inn Room to discuss Broken Teaglass written by Emily Arsenault.
The Holiday season looms less large in the insular New England
environment evoked in this unique and endearing first novel. At the
Samuelson Co. -- 'the oldest and most revered name in American
dictionaries'- we meet Billy Webb, a recent college grad and 'newbie'
and tart-tongued, Mona Minot, as they try to solve a decades old mystery
contained in the files of citations.
"... a literary gem...set in the fusty offices of a venreable publishing house and showcasing the research skills of two young lexicographers who discover clues to an unsolved murder in the citation files." (New York Times Book Review)

Mary Lawson's debut novel concerns a young woman, Kate Morrison, a
zoologist who is hundreds of miles away from her childhood home of Crow
Lake in the isolated regions of northern Ontario. Yet she can't escape
the memories of her past, the car accident that killed her parents, her
older brother who took her out to the pond to teach her about the
wildlife there, and the violence of the neighbors whose lives were
intertwined with her family. Embarking on a new love, Kate must come to
grips with her past to fashion her own future.
