Join us in the Bushnell-Sage Library Program Room as we discuss The Cemetery of Untold Stories by Julia Alvarez.
When celebrated writer Alma Cruz inherits a small plot of land in the Dominican Republic, she turns it into a place to bury her untold stories--literally. In a starred review, BookPage said, “Magical and multifaceted, this meditation on creativity, culture and aging is a triumph."
The BSL Book Club meets on the 4th Tuesday of the month from 4 p.m. - 5 p.m.
Please contact 413-229-7004 with any questions.

We are excited to host a very special display in our program room from November 12 – December 14. Since 1985, Hands in Outreach (HIO) has been empowering girls in Nepal through access to education. HIO programs embrace two generations, providing both sponsored girls and their mothers the basic right to attend school— the fundamental benefit of education HIO mothers were denied as young girls. Beautiful quilts and blankets made by HIO mothers will be showcased on our program room walls.
On Sunday, November 17 from 2:30 – 4p.m., we will host an opening reception for this exhibit, featuring a presentation from program advocates Ricky Bernstein and Catherine Miller. Join us to learn more about supporting this wonderful organization. All donations and purchases will benefit Hands in Outreach.

Combining the sharp gaze of a photographer, the diagnostics of a country doctor, and the craft of a master storyteller, Eudora Welty carved out a spot in canonical literature and rejuvenated our notions of realism by instilling her fictions with myth and interiority, the outs and ins of consciousness. Her plots are meditative, careful, almost soundless, an anecdote to our rush-rush world. Her characters are deeply drawn, a cluster of conflicting gestures and attitudes. To experience her work at its fullest, we’ll read four of her novels (one, a novel in connected stories). These trace her art from fairy tale to social realism, from an unquestioned racialist imagination to a deeper understanding of the human capacity for violence and love, all while rejecting the public sphere and privileging intensely private space, that spot where small-town life can be overwhelmed by gossip but where it also finds its more profound solace.
