Too Human brings jazz, pop to Derby Neck Library

DERBY - My husband, Ralph, and I enjoyed a wonderful performance Saturday afternoon by Too Human

Their work is sometimes soulful, sometimes sentimental - think "S'wonderful," and "Sentimental Journey," and sometimes silly.

The trio performed a variety of jazz, pop, and original tunes that kept toes tappin' in the audience at Derby Neck Library.

Go see them if you ever get the chance.


Derby Public Library to host lunchtime discussion of novel

DERBY - The Derby Public Library, 313 Elizabeth St., has scheduled a Lunchtime Book Discussion for 12:30 p.m. Aug. 31.

The selected title is the emotional novel, The Girls of August, by Anne Rivers Siddons.

Every year, four women gather together to spend a week at the 
beach, renting a new house each year.  
When one of the “girls” dies tragically, the group begins to 
drift apart and their vacations come to a halt.  

Years later, a new marriage reunites them on an island off the South Carolina coast. 
Here they come to terms with their differences and make startling discoveries that change them in ways they never expected.

Multiple copies of the book are available at the circulation desk.  

Participants are asked to bring a sandwich and a friend as they “chat and chew.”
Dessert and beverages will be provided.  
Registration is requested.  

For more information, stop by the Library, call 203-736-1482 or visit www.derbypubliclibrary.org.
