Writers in the Spotlight Series. Dennis Lehane's novels include the New York Times bestsellers The Given Day; Gone, Baby, Gone; Mystic River; Shutter Island; and Prayers for Rain.

Combining edgy suspense and the vivid period detail that made The Given Day a smashing success, award-winning, bestselling author Dennis Lehane delivers a masterful epic of Prohibition-era America told through the story of a charismatic young gangster on his rise through the glitz and the violence of the Roaring 20s in his latest work, Live by Night.

This is a ticketed event (tickets go on sale on Monday, June 25th, at 11 a.m.). Tickets may be purchased through the Capitol Center for the Arts.

Tickets will be $28.50, which includes a copy of Live by Night (available for pick up at Gibson's Bookstore beginning on October 2)

Each ticket buyer may also purchase, in addition to but not in place of their $28.50  ticket, up to six tickets at $6 each (which do not come with books) for their family or group members.

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...
