Conference Room. Memorial Days by Geraldine Brooks - Led by Denise Stankovics From the author of Horse, March, and People of the Book, this nonfiction work tells how Geraldine Brooks came to terms with the sudden and unexpected death of her husband, journalist and author Tony Horwitz. Three years after the fact, the Australian born Brooks traveled to a remote island off the coast of Tasmania where she revisited her 35-year marriage filled with risk, adventure, humor and love and found the time and space to cope with her grief. As the book jacket notes, “Memorial Days is a portrait of a larger-than-life love affair and a reckoning with the inevitability of loss.” Copies will be available at the library.
