Come join us for our annual meeting on Saturday, June 14 from 1 PM to 2:30 PM at the library.

 

There will be a brief meeting followed by the author’s talk about her new book, “American Ending”. Mary Kay will once again be teaching at Interlochen this summer and we were able to snag her before she heads back to Washington DC. Her book is about a woman growing up in an Old Believer Russian Orthodox family of immigrants in the 1910s who seeks a thoroughly American life. A copy is available at the library, and we will have copies for sale at the event.
