About the Book
Love can make even the most buttoned-up bluestocking come undone…

London, 1885

A lesbian in a lavender marriage, Jo Smith cuts a dashing figure in pin-striped trousers, working in her bookshop and keeping&nbsp;impolite company. But her hard-earned stability is about to be upended thanks to her husband’s pregnant paramour, who needs medical attention that no reputable doctor will provide.

Enter Dr. Emily Clarke, a tantalizing bluestocking working at a quaint village hospital outside the city. Emily has reservations about getting mixed up in Jo’s scandalous arrangement, but her flustered, heart-racing response to Jo has her agreeing to help despite herself.

There’s a world of difference between Jo’s community of underground clubs and sapphic societies and Emily’s respectable suburbs. Perhaps it’s a gap that even fervent desire can’t bridge.

But for those bold enough to take the risk, who knows what delicious adventures might be in store…

She holds a B.A. from The Ohio State University, where she studied English and Gender Studies, focusing on Victorian Literature and public health topics. She has a deep love of interesting art, offbeat communities, and admittedly pretentious coffee brewing systems.

Arts at the Armory is delighted to welcome living legend and musical pioneer L. Shankar to the Spotlight Series on September 17, 2026.L. Shankar is a violinist, vocalist, and composer whose career has redefined what Indian classical music can sound like on a global stage.&nbsp; Born in Madras into a family of musicians—his father V. Lakshminarayana was a Carnatic vocalist and violinist—Shankar began vocal training at age two and gave his first solo concert at seven. He earned a doctorate in ethnomusicology from Wesleyan University.L. Shankar is known for inventing the double violin—a stereophonic double-necked electric violin; he debuted the instrument in 1981 on Phil Collins’ solo album (Face Value) and on his own album (Who’s to Know). He has released over 20 albums and dozens of unique and legendary collaborations.Now considered a living legend, a pioneer, and a musical genius, L. Shankar's devotion to making groundbreaking music continues - in 2024, he released two world music albums: Full Moon and Over the Stars, and Answers in 2025.For this Spotlight performance, Shankar will perform his original Indian classical ragas and compositions along with a handful of classic Shakti pieces. He will be accompanied by an all star duo of percussion, Shakti family member Selvaganesh Vinayakram, who is a two-time Grammy Award winning member of Shakti and also the son of original Shakti member Vikku Vinyakram. On tabla is Amit Kavthekar, regarded as one of the top-ranking tabla players of his generation and a longtime student of the late great Zakir Hussain and Zakir's father Ustad Alla Rakha.&nbsp;L.

<h6></h6>Alanis Morissette's Jagged Little Pill: The Musical
Book by Diablo Cody; Music by Alanis Morissette and Glen Ballard​

Stage Director: Rhiannon Jenkins | Music Director: Kathryn Denney
An exhilarating musical inspired by the themes and raw emotions laid bare in Alanis Morissette's seminal album of the same name. The Healys appear to be a picture-perfect suburban family – but looks can be deceiving. When the cracks beneath the surface begin to show, they must choose between maintaining the status quo or facing harsh truths about themselves, their community, and the world around them.

Ephraim Curtis Middle School

On Sunday, September 20th, Sudbury will host our third inaugural <a href="https://kids.pmc.org/sudbury" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Sudbury PMC Kids Bike Ride</a>.&nbsp;Our ride is a 1-mile loop that riders may enjoy as long as they would like. The one mile course is entirely paved and loops through the beautiful residential neighborhoods of historic Sudbury. Parents are welcome to ride with their children but it is not required. If a parent chooses to accompany their child on the bike, we ask that they register as volunteers.&nbsp;
Many kids choose to ride the loop 3-6-12 or even 15 times. We encourage riders to participate as long as they would like. We will have special badges for riders who accomplish 5-8-12 and 15 miles, too! Please indicate at registration an estimate of your rider's total distance (this will help us for event organization).&nbsp;There is also an enclosed parking lot loop all starting from Curtis Middle School in Sudbury, MA. (Adults may opt to register as volunteers if they would like to ride with the kids). Before the ride there will be music and bike decorating; during the ride and following there will be an Ice-Cream Truck, Food Truck, Coffee Truck, huge bouncy castle, lawn games, music and more. All registered riders will get a free ice cream from our friends at Trombetta’s Farm Ice Cream. Registration takes place from 8:30am-9:45am. The ride is from 10:00am-11:30am, and food and games will be available from 10:00am - 1:00pm.
“The Pan-Mass Challenge is a Massachusetts-based bike-a-thon that raises more money for charity than any other single athletic fundraising event in the country. Always held the first weekend in August, the PMC raises funds for Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, a world leader in adult and pediatric cancer treatment and research. Each summer, thousands of riders and volunteers from 43 states and 12 countries participate in the PMC, all with a common goal: to find a cure for cancer.
100 percent of all rider-raised funds go directly to cancer research and treatment at Dana-Farber and the Jimmy Fund. The PMC is Dana-Farber’s single largest supporter and is 62 percent of the Jimmy Fund’s annual revenue. Since 1980, the PMC has raised $972 million for Dana-Farber.”
The Sudbury PMC Kids Bike Ride empowers young participants to contribute to a meaningful cause while enjoying a fun activity. By offering multiple course options, every child will have the opportunity to participate and make a difference - regardless of age or ability. Each ride distance is carefully planned to be safe and enjoyable, with designated routes through historic Sudbury neighborhoods that are well-marked and closely monitored by volunteers. For the youngest participants, the tot lot loop provides a secure environment where kids can ride in a contained area - strollers, scooters, tricycles are ALL welcome!
Beyond the joy of bike riding, the Sudbury PMC Kids Bike Ride serves as a powerful educational experience for children, teaching them about the impact of collective efforts in fighting cancer. As they pedal for a purpose, they learn about empathy, community involvement, and the importance of supporting breakthroughs in treatment and cures at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. This event not only raises crucial funds for cancer research but also instills valuable life lessons in the young riders; collectively we all pedal towards a more cancer-free future. As with all PMC rides, every penny donated goes directly to cancer treatment and research at Dana-Farber.
Please join us on September 20th, 2026, for the <a href="https://kids.pmc.org/sudbury" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Sudbury PMC Kids Bike Ride</a>. We are also looking for volunteers of ALL ages to help us host an impactful and safe event. If you would prefer to contribute from a distance, you can donate to the ride by clicking the link below.

<h3>Greater Boston exclusive buyer agency says homebuyers need open access to all listings, days on market, price changes, and other key property details before making an offer.</h3>

According to a June 24, 2026, Real Estate News article by Andrea V. Brambila, Eales told attendees at the National Association of Realtors&rsquo; MLS Forum in Washington, D.C., that the real estate industry faces a &ldquo;right side of history&rdquo; moment when it comes to cooperation, transparency, and open access to listing information.

Eales said the U.S. multiple listing service system helps &ldquo;end asymmetry of information&rdquo; and allows consumers to benefit &ldquo;on equal terms.&rdquo; He also criticized efforts that limit access to property details, including days on market and price reductions, calling the practice &ldquo;madness,&rdquo; according to Real Estate News<h3>Quick Facts About Reduced Property Information</h3>&bull; The issue: Private listings and fragmented listing data may prevent homebuyers from seeing all available homes and key property information.
&bull; The consumer risk: Homebuyers may be asked to make major financial decisions without full access to listing history, price changes, days on market, and other information that can affect value and negotiating strategy.
&bull; The industry warning: Realtor.com CEO Damian Eales said the industry must decide whether it supports cooperation, open markets, transparency, and fair treatment of consumers.
&bull; The local response: Buyers Brokers Only, an exclusive buyer agency serving Greater Boston, says <a href="https://www.buyersbrokersonly.com/buying/boston-buyer-agent-realtor" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">homebuyers&nbsp;should work with agents whose only loyalty is to the homebuyer</a>, real estate professionals who put clients before commissions.
