SUMMARY:In-person Author Talk with Margot Livesey
DESCRIPTION:New York Times best-selling author of The Flight of Gemma Hardy 
 and The Boy in the Field\, Margot Livesey will be at the library to talk 
 about her latest book The Road from Belhaven. It's a novel about a young 
 woman whose gift of second sight complicates her coming of age in 
 late-nineteenth-century Scotland.\n\nGrowing up in the care of her 
 grandparents on Belhaven Farm\, Lizzie Craig discovers as a small child 
 that she can see into the future. But her gift is selective—she 
 doesn’t\, for instance\, see that she has an older sister who will come 
 to join the family. As her “pictures” foretell various incidents and 
 accidents\, she begins to realize a painful truth: she may glimpse the 
 future\, but she can seldom change it.\n\nNor can Lizzie change the 
 feelings that come when a young man named Louis\, visiting Belhaven for the 
 harvest\, begins to court her. Why have the adults around her not revealed 
 that the touch of a hand can change everything? After following Louis to 
 Glasgow\, though\, she learns the limits of his devotion. Faced with a 
 seemingly impossible choice\, she makes a terrible mistake. But her second 
 sight may allow her a second chance.\n\nThis event is a collaboration with 
 Roger Williams University. \n\nIf you can't make it and would like to Zoom 
 in\, make sure to register! \n\n
