SUMMARY:Library: West Acton Citizens’ Library Book Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:West Acton Citizens’ Library\, 21 Windsor Avenue\, Acton\, MA\, 01720\nJoin your fellow community members at the West Acton Citizens’ Library for a lively book discussion led by our Librarians. Limited copies of the book in multiple formats will be available at the West Acton branch. First come\, first serve. All are welcome! \nSign up on our website: Citizens’ Library book group. \nThis months book is: Endpapers By: Jennifer Savran Kelly \nIt’s 2003\,and artist Dawn Levit is stuck. A bookbinder who works at the Metropolitan Museum of Art\, she spends all day repairing old books but hasn’t created anything of her own in years. What’s more\, although she doesn’t have a word for it yet\, Dawn is genderqueer\, and with a partner who wishes she were a man and a society that wants her to be a woman\, she’s struggling to feel safe expressing herself. Dawn spends her free time scouting the city’s street art\, hoping to find the inspiration that will break her artistic block—and time is of the essence\, because she’s making her major gallery debut in six weeks and doesn’t have anything to show yet. \nOne day at work\, Dawn discovers something hidden under the endpapers of an old the torn-off cover of a lesbian pulp novel from the 1950s\, with an illustration of a woman looking into a mirror and seeing a man’s face. Even more intriguing is the queer love letter written on the back. Dawn becomes obsessed with tracking down the author of the letter\, convinced the mysterious writer can help her find her place in the world. Her fixation only increases when her best friend\, Jae\, is injured in a hate crime for which Dawn feels responsible. But ultimately for Dawn\, the trickiest puzzle to solve is how she truly wants to live her life. \nA sharply written\, page-turning\, and evocative debut\, Endpapers is an unforgettable story about the journey toward authenticity and the hard conversations we owe ourselves in pursuit of a world where no one has to hide. \n  \nReasonable accommodations for individuals with disabilities are available upon request by emailing WACL@actonma.gov. Please note that the West Acton Citizens’ Library has limited accessibility. More accessible programs are offered at the Acton Memorial Library.

SUMMARY:Library: VIRTUAL: Racism and Civil Rights with David Kalivas
