Book discussion slated at Derby Public Library

DERBY - The Derby Public Library has scheduled its next Lunchtime Book Discussion at 12:30 p.m. July 26. 
The selected title is the compelling novel Lilac Girls by Martha Hall Kelly.  


Spanning more than 20 years in the lives of three women and based on real people and events, Kelly’s debut novel brings historical facts to life.

Caroline is a former Broadway actress and New York socialite who works with the French consulate.  
Herta is an ambitious young German doctor, and Kasia is a 15-year-old Polish girl just getting involved in the resistance.  

As WWII progresses, circumstances draw these women together, resulting in a story that will linger well after 
the book ends.  
The author will Skype in for the discussion.  
Dessert and beverages will be provided.

Registration is requested. Call 203-736-1482.
The library is at 313 Elizabeth St.


This is a press release from Cathy Williams, Director, Derby Public Library.
