About this event
Emily Peterson Meeting Room, Hageman Branch. Join Ronnie for an engaging discussion of "All the Forgivenesses" by Elizabeth Hardinger. After her mother dies, fifteen-year-old Bertie Winslow struggles to care for her four younger siblings and their unreliable father on their rural Kentucky farm. Overwhelmed, she makes the heartbreaking decision to separate the family to ensure their survival. Marriage and a move to the Kansas oil fields offer a new beginning, but Bertie remains burdened by grief, guilt, and long-hidden family secrets. Inspired by the author’s family stories, All the Forgivenesses is a moving novel about loyalty, resilience, redemption, and learning to accept love. For adults ages 18 and up. Please call the Hageman Branch at 219-926-9080 for availability.
