Saturday Book Club, "An Unnecessary Woman" by Rabih Alameddine

Told in the voice of a reclusive older woman, the story unfolds in
Beirut, Lebanon within the confines of her small apartment. It is a
quiet book about a lost woman in a loud and violent city. The Lebanese
civil war is viewed through her memories. This book is also about
literature,
and a portrait of a woman living in a volatile time, who shuts out
reality and loses herself in the written word until she reaches a 
breaking point.

Meets at Salisbury Town Hall

Saturday February 20, 4:00 p.m.

The Era of Elegance: Ladies, Legends, and Lakeside Dwellings:
 Alfredo Taylor in Norfolk, CT presented by Dr. Ann Havemeyer. 
A collaboration of the Scoville Memorial Library and the Civic 
Committee of the Salisbury Association
A century ago, motorists driving to the village of Norfolk along 
Litchfield Road would have enjoyed a winding country lane dotted
 with a collection of impressive stone and timber houses. Proudly
 lining the road or dramatically perched on the hills above, many 
of these houses bear the signature of Alfredo Taylor, the Beaux-
Arts architect whose work has come to define the look and style
 of this small town. Taylor came to Norfolk in the first years of the
 last century, and his distinctive hand is to be seen everywhere, as
 he and his clients, many of them female, put their imaginative 
mark on the landscape.

Ann Havemeyer is the Director of the Norfolk Library and Curator 
of the Norfolk Historical Museum. She has written several books on
 Norfolk history and architecture. She holds a doctorate from Yale 
University in the History of Art and has lectured extensively.

Meets at Salisbury Town Hall


Thursday, February 25

Seeds of Longevity: Preserving Plants for Our Future. Presented
 by Robin Zitter, horticulturist and Lawrence Davis-Hollander, 
ethnobotanist. A collaboration of Plantin' Seeds and Scoville 
Memorial Library. Short film followed by presentation, discussion, 
and seed distribution. Seed diversity is fundamental to preserving
 biological diversity in gardens and native habitats. As part of the
 initial effort to establish seed libraries and a living seed bank in
 northwest Connecticut, Robin and Lawrence will introduce the
 rationale and need for locally based seed saving. Seeds will be 
available to committed participants. Followed in March by a seed 
planting workshop.
