Book Group :A Midwife's Tale: The Life of Martha Ballard, Based on Her Diary, 1785-1812. by Laurel Thatcher Ulrich.
2024-04-09 16:00 - 18:00 | Denmark Public Library, 121 East Main Street, Denmark, ME, 04022, United States
On April 9, the book group will dicuss A Midwife’s Tale: The Life of Martha Ballard, Based on Her Diary, 1785-1812. by Laurel Thatcher Ulrich.

From GoodReads:
PULITZER PRIZE WINNER • Drawing on the diaries of one woman in eighteenth-century Maine, “A truly talented historian unravels the fascinating life of a community that is so foreign, and yet so similar to our own” ( The New York Times Book Review).
Between 1785 and 1812 a midwife and healer named Martha Ballard kept a diary that recorded her arduous work (in 27 years she attended 816 births) as well as her domestic life in Hallowell, Maine. On the basis of that diary, Laurel Thatcher Ulrich gives us an intimate and densely imagined portrait, not only of the industrious and reticent Martha Ballard but of her society. At once lively and impeccably scholarly, A Midwife’s Tale is a triumph of history on a human scale.

Book Group: The Splendid and the Vile: A Saga of Churchill, Family, and Defiance During the Blitz by Erik Larson
2024-05-14 16:00 - 18:00 | Denmark Public Library, 121 East Main Street, Denmark, ME, 04022, United States
On May 14 the book group will discuss The Splendid and the Vile: A Saga of Churchill, Family, and Defiance During the Blitz by Erik Larson
According to GoodReads:
On Winston Churchill’s first day as prime minister, Adolf Hitler invaded Holland and Belgium. Poland and Czechoslovakia had already fallen, and the Dunkirk evacuation was just two weeks away. For the next twelve months, Hitler would wage a relentless bombing campaign, killing 45,000 Britons. It was up to Churchill to hold his country together and persuade President Franklin Roosevelt that Britain was a worthy ally–and willing to fight to the end.
In The Splendid and the Vile, Erik Larson shows how Churchill taught the British people “the art of being fearless.” It is a story of political brinkmanship, but it’s also an intimate domestic drama, set against the backdrop of Churchill’s prime-ministerial country home, Chequers; his wartime retreat, Ditchley, where he and his entourage go when the moon is brightest and the bombing threat is highest; and of course 10 Downing Street in London. Drawing on diaries, original archival documents, and once-secret intelligence reports–some released only recently–Larson provides a new lens on London’s darkest year through the day-to-day experience of Churchill and his family: his wife, Clementine; their youngest daughter, Mary, who chafes against her parents’ wartime protectiveness; their son, Randolph, and his beautiful, unhappy wife, Pamela; Pamela’s illicit lover, a dashing American emissary; and the advisers in Churchill’s “Secret Circle,” to whom he turns in the hardest moments.ds:

Book Group: Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer
2024-06-11 16:00 - 18:00 | Denmark Public Library, 121 East Main Street, Denmark, ME, 04022, United States
On June 11 the book group will be discussing Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer
According to GoodReads:
As a botanist, Robin Wall Kimmerer has been trained to ask questions of nature with the tools of science. As a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, she embraces the notion that plants and animals are our oldest teachers. In Braiding Sweetgrass, Kimmerer brings these lenses of knowledge together to show that the awakening of a wider ecological consciousness requires the acknowledgment and celebration of our reciprocal relationship with the rest of the living world. For only when we can hear the languages of other beings are we capable of understanding the generosity of the earth, and learning to give our own gifts in return.
