Cathie Pelletier / The return of Sy / Signed first editions. May 15th, 2013

In The One-Way Bridge, Cathie Pelletier draws readers back to the beloved town of Mattagash, a seemingly quiet New England outpost at the end of the road in Northern Maine. Yet Mattagash is anything but tranquil. While its citizens bicker publicly over small-town theft or their neighbors’ offensive mailboxes, they privately struggle through deeper life issues: scandal, loss, failed ambitions, and the scars of war. 
Cathie Pelletier was born and raised on the banks of the St. John River, at the end of the road in Northern Maine.  She is the author of 9 other novels, including The Funeral Makers (NYTBR Notable Book), The Weight of Winter (winner of the New England Book Award) and Running the Bulls (winner of the Paterson Prize for Fiction). 
We've never had a novel by Cathie be so quick out of the starting gate. It really seems to have struck a chord locally and the buzz on it is very strong. Come check it out. Cathie will join us on Friday, May 17, at 7 PM.

It's always a joy when Sy Montgomery comes to town. Sy, the author of The Good Good Pig and Spell of the Tiger, is one of the nation's best nature writers and she hails from tiny Hancock, NH, right down the road.  This time Sy has written a children's book about the adventures of Snowball, the Dancing Cockatoo. The minds and souls of animals are never so vivid to us as when they are being described and celebrated by this gifted writer. Join us Saturday...
