For thirty years\, Elizabeth Garber’s writing\, in poetry and prose\, has focused on the intimacy of closely observed moments and the inner landscapes of memory.

SUMMARY:Maine Author Talk : Claire Ackroyd
DESCRIPTION:Buck Memorial Library welcomes Claire Acroyd\, a published author as well as a landscape & garden designer. \n​Raised in England among the best traditions of English gardening\, in a large house with a large garden and a large family. 25 years ago she began doing inspections for organic certification for the Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association (MOFGA)\, and this is where she found the impetus to write a story. \nHer inspection work provided her with a unique look into the operations of the maple syrup industry and the people who toil in order to bring sugary sweetness to our tables. From that\, “Murder in the Maple Woods” and its follow up\, “Body in the Blueberry Barrens” were born. \nHer books will be available for purchase from Bookstacks.

SUMMARY:Book Launch: "Hardtail Strat" by Peter Gallway
DESCRIPTION:A free event celebrating the publication of “Hardtail Strat” by Peter Gallway\, which will include songs\, stories\, and book signings. \n“One of the best books by a rock musician I’ve ever read . . .” —Danny Goldberg\, author of Serving the Servant: Remembering Kurt Cobain \nA gritty and melodic memoir of a guitarist’s coming of age amid the electric pulse of the Greenwich Village and Los Angeles 1960s music revolutions\, when he encountered legends like James Taylor\, Jim Morrison\, Joni Mitchell\, and Ken Kesey. \nA Jewish kid born in Queens in 1947\, Peter Gallway grew up with caring but emotionally aloof parents\, and when the Leave It To Beaver 1950s gave way to counterculture\, free love\, and the chaotic rock ‘n’ roll of the next two decades\, he took the ride of his life. \nFrom shooting rubber bands in Arthur Miller and Marilyn Monroe’s Sutton Place apartment to shooting heroin in the backrooms of New York\, Gallway plunges into the intoxicating world of New York’s Night Owl Café alongside the Lovin’ Spoonful and James Taylor\, through the Troubadour\, Mama Cass\, the Manson family\, and the record companies of LA’s Sunset Strip. \nSigned first with The Fifth Avenue Band\, and then as a solo artist\, Gallway’s music career culminated in a six-city Japanese tour. When he moved to Maine\, a Fender “hardtail” Stratocaster guitar offered him a second chance—an unlikely rebirth\, when he was lucky to still be alive. \nWritten in the raw\, lyrical rhythm of a songwriter\, through poetry\, music\, and prose\, Hardtail Strat is an unputdownable story of music and madness\, abuse and opportunity\, loss and redemption—and the enduring power of song to set us free.
