SUMMARY:The Search for Truth and the Persistence of Love Across Time with Novelist Amanda Peters
DESCRIPTION:Date: Thursday\, November 13\, 2025 Time: 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm Presenter: Amanda Peters Location:  Online   \nRegistration is required. Click this link to attend the virtual event. \nJoin us in an online conversation with acclaimed writer Amanda Peters as we discuss her instant bestselling novel\, The Berry Pickers\, as well as her tender short fiction collection\, Waiting for the Long Night Moon: Stories.  \nInfluenced by Peters’ own Mi’kmaq heritage\, The Berry Pickers is a riveting exploration of family\, grief\, and the bonds we share.  \nJuly 1962. A Mi’kmaq family from Nova Scotia arrives in Maine to pick blueberries for the summer. Weeks later\, four-year-old Ruthie\, the family’s youngest child\, vanishes. She is last seen by her six-year-old brother\, Joe\, sitting on a favorite rock at the edge of a berry field. Joe will remain distraught by his sister’s disappearance for years to come. \nIn Maine\, a young girl named Norma grows up as the only child of an affluent family. Her father is emotionally distant\, her mother frustratingly overprotective. Norma is often troubled by recurring dreams and visions that seem more like memories than imagination. As she grows older\, Norma slowly comes to realize there is something her parents aren’t telling her. Unwilling to abandon her intuition\, she will spend decades trying to uncover this family secret. \nThe Berry Pickers is an intimate portrait of race\, love\, and loneliness–and the power of forgiveness. Register now to take part in the discussion! \nNot able to attend live? You can access the recording for this event and all Online Author Series events on our website shortly after they conclude. \nAbout the Author: Amanda Peters is a mixed-race woman of Mi’kmaq and European ancestry\, born and raised in the Annapolis Valley\, Nova Scotia. Her short fiction and non-fiction have been published in The Antigonish Review\, Grain Magazine\, The Alaska Quarterly Review\, The Dalhousie Review\, and Filling Station Magazine. \nAmanda’s first novel\, The Berry Pickers\, was a finalist for the Atwood Gibson Writers’ Trust Fiction Prize in Canada\, and won the Barnes and Noble Discover Prize and the Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Fiction in the US. The Berry Pickers won the Dartmouth Book Award and the Crime Writers of Canada First Crime Novel Award\, and has been translated into sixteen languages around the world. Her most recent book of short fiction\, Waiting for the Long Night Moon\, was published August\, 2024\, to critical acclaim. \n \nThis event is generously sponsored by the Friends of the Mountain View Library.

SUMMARY:Community\, Power\, and the Search for Indigenous Identity with Award-Winning Journalist Joseph Lee
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday\, November 5\, 2025 Time: 11:00 am – 12:00 pm Presenter: Joseph Lee Location:  Online   \nRegistration is required. Click this link to attend the virtual event. \nYou’re invited to learn from journalist and author Joseph Lee as he chats online with us about his stirring memoir\, Nothing More of This Land: Community\, Power\, and the Search for Indigenous Identity. In it\, he explores Indigenous identity in proximity to land that serves as an iconic vacationing spot for the wealthy–the “island paradise” Martha’s Vineyard. \nGrowing up Aquinnah Wampanoag\, Joseph Lee grappled with what it means to be an Indigenous person in the world today\, especially as tribal land\, culture\, and community face new threats. Starting with the story of his own tribe\, which is from the iconic Martha’s Vineyard\, Lee tackles key questions around Indigenous identity and the stubborn legacy of colonialism. \nLee weaves his own story—and that of his family—with conversations with Indigenous leaders\, artists\, and scholars from around the world about everything from culture and language to climate change and the politics of belonging. As he unpacks the meaning of Indigenous identity\, Lee grants us a new understanding of our nation and what a better community might look like. \nRegister now to join the author online as he delves into the true and vulnerable story\, Nothing More of This Land.  \nNot able to attend live? You can access the recording for this event and all Online Author Series events on our website shortly after they conclude. \nAbout the Author: Joseph Lee is an Aquinnah Wampanoag writer based in New York City. He has an MFA from Columbia University and teaches creative writing at Mercy University. His writing has been published in The Guardian\, BuzzFeed\, Vox\, High Country News\, and more. He was a Margins Fellow at the Asian American Writers Workshop and a Senior Indigenous Affairs Fellow at Grist. \n \nThis event is generously sponsored by the Friends of the Mountain View Library.

SUMMARY:Courtly Intrigue and Whispers as Weapons with Historical Fiction Queen Philippa Gregory
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday\, October 29\, 2025 Time: 11:00 am – 12:00 pm Presenter: Dr. Philippa Gregory Location:  Online   \nRegistration is required. Click this link to attend the virtual event. \nCoined as the “queen of British historical fiction\,” Philippa Gregory returns to the infamous Tudor Court with a tale that is both timely and timeless. We invite you to sit down with us for an intriguing conversation with Gregory about her newest novel Boleyn Traitor (forthcoming October 14\, 2025).  \nJane Boleyn watches from the shadows of the Tudor Court\, where secrets are currency\, every choice is dangerous\, and even the faintest whisper can seal the fate of queens. \nFor Jane\, survival demands playing every role required of her: a loving wife who conceals her doubts\, a devoted sister to Anne Boleyn at the height of her power\, and an obedient spy who carefully wields her words. But in a court ruled by ambition and a tyrant’s sword\, Jane must rely on her sharp wit and skillful maneuvering to outthink those around her\, knowing that one wrong move could cost her everything.  \nWith a rich tapestry of new historical insights and lyrical language honed over decades of writing\, Gregory's return to the Tudors is a new definition of this most fascinating era. As the world becomes more extreme and unpredictable\, Jane’s story of survival and ingenuity offers a compelling parallel\, serving as both a powerful historical narrative and an echo of the challenges we face. This is a riveting tale of loyalty and betrayal\, ambition and love—one that should not be missed by readers this fall. \nRegister today for this exciting glimpse into the perilous 16th century royal court! \nNot able to attend live? You can access the recording for this event and all Online Author Series events on our website shortly after they conclude. \nAbout the Author: Dr. Philippa Gregory is one of the world’s foremost historical novelists. She wrote her first ever novel\, Wideacre\, when she was completing her PhD in eighteenth-century literature and it sold worldwide\, heralding a new era for historical fiction. Her flair for blending history and imagination developed into a signature style and Philippa went on to write many bestselling novels\, including The Other Boleyn Girl and The White Queen.  \nDr. Gregory studied history at the University of Sussex and was awarded a PhD by the University of Edinburgh where she is a Regent and was made Alumna of the Year in 2009. She holds an honorary degree from Teesside University\, and is a fellow of the Universities of Sussex and Cardiff. Philippa is a member of the Society of Authors and in 2016\, was presented with the Outstanding Contribution to Historical Fiction Award by the Historical Writers’ Association. In 2018\, she was awarded an Honorary Platinum Award by Neilsen for achieving significant lifetime sales across her entire book output.
