SUMMARY:Book Group: A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman
DESCRIPTION:Copies of this book will be available at the library’s desk. \n“Meet Ove. He’s a curmudgeon—the kind of man who points at people he dislikes as if they were burglars caught outside his bedroom window. He has staunch principles\, strict routines\, and a short fuse. People call him “the bitter neighbor from hell.” But must Ove be bitter just because he doesn’t walk around with a smile plastered to his face all the time? \nBehind the cranky exterior there is a story and a sadness. So when one November morning a chatty young couple with two chatty young daughters move in next door and accidentally flatten Ove’s mailbox\, it is the lead-in to a comical and heartwarming tale of unkempt cats\, unexpected friendship\, and the ancient art of backing up a U-Haul. All of which will change one cranky old man and a local residents’ association to their very foundations. \nA feel-good story in the spirit of The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry and Major Pettigrew’s Last Stand\, Fredrik Backman’s novel about the angry old man next door is a thoughtful exploration of the profound impact one life has on countless others. “If there was an award for ‘Most Charming Book of the Year\,’ this first novel by a Swedish blogger-turned-overnight-sensation would win hands down” (Booklist\, starred review).”

SUMMARY:Green Burial and The Vermont Law
DESCRIPTION:“Green Burial and The Vermont Law” at Putney Public Library \nGreen burial is an internment practice that seeks to minimize the negative impacts of burial while at the same time benefiting the environment. Many Vermonters are surprised to learn that green burial is not an option in Vermont. However\, a new bill introduced at the state house could change that by changing the mandatory minimum burial depth. \nOn Saturday\, February 25th at 3pm\, come to the Putney Public Library to learn about the bill\, why burial depth is important\, and the environmental benefits of green burial on rehabilitating\, preserving\, and conserving habitats. This program is hosted by end-of-life specialist and green-burial-educator Michelle Acciavatti and wildlife biologist and green-burial-educator Carl Anderson. It includes a screening of the short documentary\, “Dying Green”\, followed by a brief presentation about green burial in Vermont and a discussion. For more information visit vermontgreenburial.wordpress.com and direct questions to vermontgreenburial@gmail.com \nPutney Library is located at 55 Main Street in Putney\, VT. This program is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Book Group: The Warmth of Other Suns by Isabel Wilkerson
DESCRIPTION:Copies of this book will be available at the library’s desk. \nFrom 1915 to 1970\, this exodus of almost six million people changed the face of America. Wilkerson compares this epic migration to the migrations of other peoples in history. She interviewed more than a thousand people\, and gained access to new data and official records\, to write this definitive and vividly dramatic account of how these American journeys unfolded\, altering our cities\, our country\, and ourselves. \nWith stunning historical detail\, Wilkerson tells this story through the lives of three unique individuals: Ida Mae Gladney\, who in 1937 left sharecropping and prejudice in Mississippi for Chicago\, where she achieved quiet blue-collar success and\, in old age\, voted for Barack Obama when he ran for an Illinois Senate seat; sharp and quick-tempered George Starling\, who in 1945 fled Florida for Harlem\, where he endangered his job fighting for civil rights\, saw his family fall\, and finally found peace in God; and Robert Foster\, who left Louisiana in 1953 to pursue a medical career\, the personal physician to Ray Charles as part of a glitteringly successful medical career\, which allowed him to purchase a grand home where he often threw exuberant parties. \nWilkerson brilliantly captures their first treacherous and exhausting cross-country trips by car and train and their new lives in colonies that grew into ghettos\, as well as how they changed these cities with southern food\, faith\, and culture and improved them with discipline\, drive\, and hard work. Both a riveting microcosm and a major assessment\, The Warmth of Other Suns is a bold\, remarkable\, and riveting work\, a superb account of an “unrecognized immigration” within our own land. Through the breadth of its narrative\, the beauty of the writing\, the depth of its research\, and the fullness of the people and lives portrayed herein\, this book is destined to become a classic.

SUMMARY:Communication of the Heart Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join board certified (BCC) Health/Wellness and Life Coach and Psychosynthesis Counselor Robin White for a communication workshop based on Marshall Rosenberg’s Nonviolent Communication\, at the Putney Public Library on Wednesday\, January 18th at 6:30pm. \nRobin says of this workshop\, “Communication of the Heart is a forum that is both educational and experiential\, in a context that is fun and nourishing\, where people walk away feeling more connected to themselves and to the people they love.

SUMMARY:Poet Daniel A. Heller Reads from Between the Shadows
DESCRIPTION:The Putney Public Library is delighted to host Brattleboro poet Daniel A. Heller for a reading from his recently published book\, Between the Shadows\, on Thursday\, January 12th at 7pm. \nIn Heller’s words\, “many of the poems in this book come from the dark corners of my heart. By giving verbal form to these ideas I hope to be able to at least look at them if not actually confront and diminish them. They reflect many of my regrets\, sadness\, disappointments (often in myself)\, and perceptions of the world in which I live. If any reader can identify with some of these ideas\, then he or she will know that he or she is not alone. That in itself would make the poems purposeful. In my efforts to become a better human being\, I have come across Buddhism. The Buddhist core values of compassion\, equanimity\, and kindness are exactly what I have needed. Readers will find reflections of my religious beliefs in a number of these works. Poems rattle around in my mind\, sometimes for weeks\, until I have no choice but to let them out. Many of these poems are organic. I am not clear on the form they will take until I actually sit down to write. Others are attempts to use form\, meter\, and rhyme\, whatever feels right. These lyrics give voice to my inner demons\, and allow me to share them with the world. So I send them out\, hoping that they may bring someone insight or relief.” \nDaniel A. Heller was a secondary educator for over thirty years. He holds a BA and an MA in English from Middlebury College\, an MEd from Keene State College (NH)\, a CAGS in educational administration and planning from UVM\, and an honorary Doctor of Humanities degree from The College of St. Joseph (Rutland\, VT). He has published six books on education. This is his first book of poetry\, although he has written poetry since he was in his teens. He lives in Brattleboro\, Vermont\, and West Hartford\, Connecticut\, with his wife of over forty years\, Nina. \nPutney Library is located at 55 Main Street in Putney\, VT. This program is free and open to the public. \n

SUMMARY:Book group: The Snow Child by Eowyn Ivey
DESCRIPTION:Copies of this book available at the library’s desk. \nAlaska\, 1920: a brutal place to homestead\, and especially tough for recent arrivals Jack and Mabel. Childless\, they are drifting apart–he breaking under the weight of the work of the farm; she crumbling from loneliness and despair. In a moment of levity during the season’s first snowfall\, they build a child out of snow. The next morning the snow child is gone–but they glimpse a young\, blonde-haired girl running through the trees. \nThis little girl\, who calls herself Faina\, seems to be a child of the woods. She hunts with a red fox at her side\, skims lightly across the snow\, and somehow survives alone in the Alaskan wilderness. As Jack and Mabel struggle to understand this child who could have stepped from the pages of a fairy tale\, they come to love her as their own daughter. But in this beautiful\, violent place things are rarely as they appear\, and what they eventually learn about Faina will transform all of them.
