Stratford Library Offers On-Site Book Talks

Press release from the Stratford Library:

Sept. 22, 2021

The Stratford Library has announced that its first “Books Over Coffee” title will be open to the public in a hybrid version at the Library beginning September 29. Kevin Wilson’s Nothing to See Here will be the topic of discussion and, for the first time since February 2020, it will take place in the Library’s Lovell Room, live and in-person. Those wishing to participate via Zoom will also have that opportunity. In the Lovell Room, the town mandated wearing of face masks will be observed.

Kevin Wilson’s one-of-a-kind novel, Nothing to See Here concerns a young woman, Lillian, who is asked by her friend to be caretaker for her husband’s twin step kids. Astonishingly, the pair can spontaneously combust when they are agitated, flames igniting from their skin in a disturbing but beautiful way. Lillian and the twins learn to trust each other – and stay cool – just as her friend’s family is bracing for a major announcement. The novel received glowing reviews upon publication last year.

“Books Over Coffee” will be held in the Stratford Library’s Lovell Room beginning at 12 noon. Participants who wish to take part via Zoom should call the Library at 203.385.4162 in order to be sent a link.

Copies of all "Books Over Coffee" selections are currently available for loan at the library’s Circulation Desk. The titles are also available for loan on Kindle and Nook eReaders. The discussion programs are free and open to the public.

For further information and/or a fall-winter program schedule, visit the Stratford Library at 2203 Main Street in Stratford, Connecticut. Timely information is also available on the library’s website at: www.stratfordlibrary.org.
