Reception, Discussion, and Book-Signing
A Great Unrecorded History Book Cover

As a reminder, the Center will host a reception, discussion and book-signing of Wendy Moffat's acclaimed biography of British novelist E.M. Forster, A Great Unrecorded History, on Wednesday, July 28, 6 p.m. at the Midtown Scholar at 1302 N. Third Street.

We are please to announce that the biography will be
featured in a front-page review in the July 25 edition of The New York Times Book Review. Written by award-winning novelist and critic Colm Toibin, the review hails Moffat's work as a "well-written, intelligent and perceptive biography of Forster."

Moffat, professor of English at Dickinson College, began her research in 1997 about the author of Howard's End and A Passage to India after coming upon a treasure trove of unpublished material at Cambridge University. In her biography, she turns a keen and lively eye on Forster's sexual orientation-and its influence on his personal and professional lives. Our event on July 28 will be an excellent opportunity to meet the author of this internationally-acclaimed biography.
 
A $5 donation is recommended for the reception. Proceeds will benefit Common Roads. For more information, contact Louie Marven, director of education and youth services, at (717) 920-9534 or lmarven@centralpalgbtcenter.org.
