Author Jane Steen at Cook Park Library-Libertyville

Libertyvilles's own Jane Steen will be discussing her new release, The House of Closed Doors, set in a small midwestern town of the 1870's.

In Nell Lillington’s small Midwestern town of the 1870s, marriage is the obvious fate of a young woman of some social standing. Yet Nell is determined to elude the duties and restrictions of matrimony. So when she finds herself pregnant at the age of 17, she refuses to divulge the name of the father and even her childhood friend Martin is kept in the dark.

Jane Steen was one of three finalists in the 2015 Soon to Be Famous Illinois Author Project for this novel.
