SUMMARY:Author talk with Anthea Penne
DESCRIPTION:Join Anthea Penne\, author of Old Stones\, as she reads excerpts from her novel and discusses the research behind it. \nAt the end of the Second World War nearly 50\,000 women emigrated to Canada from Britain and the continent. For those women\, the Atlantic crossing marked the beginning of a great adventure: a new country\, a new life and a new husband. But those transcontinental marriages often created a dual heritage for the children of the unions\, making “home” difficult to define. In Old Stones\, the gap between Anthea’s privileged English and provincial Canadian backgrounds is made achingly clear in family stories from both continents. An unsentimental look at a war-time union\, Old Stones is an inquiry into one woman’s very different backgrounds as well as a candid examination of a family’s cultural divide. \nRegistration required. Register online or call 604-929-3727\, ext. 8166. Contact Vanessa at gillv@nvdpl.ca for more information. \nThis event takes place in the Enid Dearing Meeting Room at Parkgate Library.
