SUMMARY:Virtual Talk on College Admissions
DESCRIPTION:Another college application season is around the corner\, and stress is already beginning to ratchet up for teens and their parents. You’re invited to join us for this must-watch talk by Irena Smith\, PhD. You will hear about constructive and healthy ways to approach the college application process\, preserve your relationship with your teen\, and help them define success on their terms instead of chasing the elusive “golden ticket.” \n  \nIrena is a former Stanford Admissions Officer who has spent 18 years advising accomplished\, tightly-wound students in Palo Alto and around the world. She saw firsthand the extreme measures parents took to help their children gain admission to highly selective colleges and the toll it took on the children as well as on their parents. \nAt the same time\, Irena’s own children struggled with developmental delays\, learning differences\, severe depression\, and anxiety. She kept her double life—successful college counselor at work\, anxious mom at home—tightly under wraps for years until a stunning realization: she was exactly like the anxious parents of the students she worked with\, all of whom were equally terrified about their children’s future. Irena’s memoir\, The Golden Ticket: A Life in College Admissions Essays\, which candidly explores her personal as well as professional life\, was published in 2023\, and she has since devoted her time to speaking out about hard things: the heavy burden of generational expectations\, teen and young adult mental health\, and the importance of embracing a broader\, more generous vision of what it means to succeed. To learn more about Irena’s personal experience as a parent\, professional experience as a college admissions officer\, and leave with tips on how to help your child approach the application process in practical\, healthy ways–register now! \n  \nRegister Now: https://libraryc.org/tiltonlibrary/52919\nUnable to attend on that date?

SUMMARY:Virtual Book Talk with Yellowface Author R.F. Kuang
DESCRIPTION:As part of the Library Speakers Consortium\, join the author as she chats with us about her New York Times bestselling novel\, Yellowface. Yellowface grapples with questions of diversity\, racism\, and cultural appropriation\, as well as the terrifying alienation of social media. \nIn Yellowface\, Authors June Hayward and Athena Liu were supposed to be twin rising stars. But Athena’s a literary darling. June Hayward is literally nobody. Who wants stories about basic white girls\, June thinks. \nSo when June witnesses Athena’s death in a freak accident\, she acts on impulse: she steals Athena’s just-finished masterpiece\, an experimental novel about the unsung contributions of Chinese laborers during World War I. \nSo what if June edits Athena’s novel and sends it to her agent as her own work? So what if she lets her new publisher rebrand her as Juniper Song—complete with an ambiguously ethnic author photo? Doesn’t this piece of history deserve to be told\, whoever the teller? That’s what June claims\, and the New York Times bestseller list seems to agree. \nBut June can’t get away from Athena’s shadow\, and emerging evidence threatens to bring June’s (stolen) success down around her. As June races to protect her secret\, she discovers exactly how far she will go to keep what she thinks she deserves. \nWhite lies\, dark humor\, and deadly consequences await within the pages of Yellowface. With its totally immersive first-person voice\, Kuang’s novel is timely\, razor-sharp\, and eminently readable. Register to join the conversation! \nAbout the Author: Rebecca F. Kuang is the award-winning\, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Poppy War trilogy\, Babel: An Arcane History\, and Yellowface. A Marshall Scholar\, she has an MPhil in Chinese Studies from Cambridge and an MSc in Contemporary Chinese Studies from Oxford; she is now pursuing a PhD in East Asian Languages and Literatures at Yale\, where she studies diaspora\, contemporary Chinese literature\, and Asian American literature. \nhttps://libraryc.org/tiltonlibrary/47584 \nFunded by The Friends of Tilton Library

She has a lot to be proud of with her keen intelligence\, impeccable taste\, and the L.A. real estate empire she’s built. But when she finds herself trapped 300 miles north of the city\, convalescing in a sleepy coastal town with her adult daughter Beth and teenage granddaughter Jack\, Lana is stuck counting otters instead of square footage—and hoping that boredom won’t kill her before the cancer does. \nIn a turn of events\, when Jack happens upon a dead body while kayaking she quickly becomes a suspect in the homicide investigation\, and the Rubicon women are thrown into chaos. Beth thinks Lana should focus on recovery\, but Lana has a better idea. She’ll pull on her wig\, find the true murderer\, protect her family\, and prove she still has power. With Jack and Beth’s help\, Lana uncovers a web of lies\, family vendettas\, and land disputes lurking beneath the surface of a community populated by folksy conservationists and wealthy ranchers. But as their amateur snooping advances into ever-more dangerous territory\, the headstrong Rubicon women must learn to do the one thing they’ve always resisted: depend on each other. \nHarness your inner detective and sign up for the investigation. Register now! \nAbout the Author: Nina Simon writes crime fiction about strong women. She is the New York Times-bestselling debut author of Mother-Daughter Murder Night.

SUMMARY:Power\, Love\, and Art with Xochitl Gonzalez Virtual Book Talk
DESCRIPTION:As part of the Library Speakers Consortium\, join us as we chat with award-winning and bestselling author Xochitl Gonzalez about her newest novel Anita de Monte Laughs Last. In 1985. Anita de Monte\, a rising star in the art world\, is found dead in New York City; her tragic death is the talk of the town. Until it isn’t. By 1998 Anita’s name had been all but forgotten―certainly by the time Raquel\, a third-year art history student was preparing her final thesis. On College Hill\, surrounded by privileged students whose futures are already paved out for them\, Raquel feels like an outsider. Students of color\, like her\, are the minority there\, and the pressure to work twice as hard for the same opportunities is no secret. But when Raquel becomes romantically involved with a well-connected older art student\, she finds herself unexpectedly rising up the social ranks. As she attempts to straddle both worlds\, she stumbles upon Anita’s story\, raising questions about the dynamics of her own relationship\, which eerily mirrors that of the forgotten artist. \nhttps://libraryc.org/tiltonlibrary/45431\nFunded by The Friends of Tilton Library

SUMMARY:Madeline Miller: Virtual Author Talk
DESCRIPTION: As part of the Library Speakers Consortium\, you’re invited to a fascinating exploratory conversation with Madeline Miller\, bestselling author of The Song of Achilles and Circe\, as she chats with us about her body of work and her process of retelling Greek classics into fresh\, modern epics in fiction. \nIn The Song of Achilles\, Achilles\, “the best of all the Greeks\,” son of the cruel sea goddess Thetis and the legendary king Peleus\, is strong\, swift\, and beautiful\, irresistible to all who meet him. Patroclus is an awkward young prince exiled from his homeland after an act of shocking violence. Brought together by chance\, they forge an inseparable bond despite risking the gods’ wrath. \nIn Circe\, to Helios\, god of the sun and mightiest of the Titans\, a daughter is born. But Circe is a strange child–neither powerful like her father nor viciously alluring like her mother. Turning to the world of mortals for companionship\, she discovers that she does possess power: the power of witchcraft\, which can transform rivals into monsters and menace the gods themselves. Circe must summon all her strength and choose\, once and for all\, whether she belongs with the gods she is born from or with the mortals she has come to love. \nRegister Now: libraryc.org/tiltonlibrary/42967\nFunded by The Friends of Tilton Library

SUMMARY:Nina Totenberg: Virtual Author Talk
DESCRIPTION:As part of the Library Speakers Consortium\, you are invited to a FREE intimate conversation with Nina Totenberg as she talks about her nearly fifty-year friendship with Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and her book\, Dinners With Ruth: A Memoir on the Power of Friendships. \nDinners with Ruth is an extraordinary account of two women who paved the way for future generations by tearing down professional and legal barriers. It is also an intimate memoir of the power of friendships as women began to pry open career doors and transform the workplace. Ruth and Nina saw each other not only through personal joys but also illness\, loss\, and widowhood. They shared not only a love of opera\, but also of shopping\, as they instinctively understood that clothes were armor for women who wanted to be taken seriously in a workplace dominated by men. During Ruth’s last year\, they shared so many small dinners that Saturdays were “reserved for Ruth” in Nina’s house. Inspiring and revelatory\, Dinners with Ruth is a moving story of the joy and true meaning of friendship. \nRegister now: libraryc.org/tiltonlibrary/42965\nFunded by the Friends of Tilton Library

SUMMARY:Local Author Talk & Wood Carving Demo
DESCRIPTION:CARVING OUT A LIVING ON THE LAND\nwith Emmet Van Driesche\nof Ashfield’s Pieropan Christmas Tree Farm\nWhen he first envisioned becoming a farmer\, author Emmet Van Driesche never imagined his main crop would be Christmas trees\, nor that such a tree farm could be more of a managed forest than the conventional grid of perfectly sheared trees. Carving Out a Living on the Land tells the story of how Van Driesche navigated changing life circumstances\, took advantage of unexpected opportunities\, and leveraged new and old skills to piece together an economically viable living\, while at the same time respecting the land’s complex ecological relationships. \nFrom spoon carving to scything\, coppicing to wreath-making\, Carving Out a Living on the Land proves that you don’t need acres of expensive bottomland to start your land-based venture\, but rather the creativity and vision to see what might be done with that rocky section or ditch or patch of trees too small to log.

SUMMARY:Polishing the Bones - Author Visit Rescheduled
DESCRIPTION:Polishing the Bones” is an intimate portrayal of a woman’s unfolding inner journey through her Jungian analysis\, her dreams\, and her terminal illness as she is guided deeper into the mysteries of life and the extraordinary transformation of her death. \nThe true story of an unusually creative woman\, Laura\, following her life’s transformation and individuation\, with all its longing\, pain\, transcendent beauty\, love\, and life’s completion. After the conclusion of her Jungian analysis\, Laura becomes terminally ill and is supported by a few intimates including her former analyst\, who comes to live with the family to help her die. The intimacy and depth of relationship between the two women\, and the foundation of guiding dreams that developed in the analysis\, forms a container for an unfolding spiritual journey with numinous experience and sacred visions. We witness the tender care of Laura through and after her death as well as the experience of the author\, who undergoes her own transformation through an awe-inspiring initiation into the realm of death itself.(from the publisher) \nA Deerfield resident\, Penelope Tarasuk is a Jungian analyst in private practice in Massachusetts working with individuals\, couples\, and families. She is a senior training analyst and faculty member of the New England Society of Jungian Analysts and the C. G. Jung Institute of Boston. \nThis event is open to all\, at no charge.
