From the Library:
This is to let you know that we still have tickets to hear author Liz Trenow talk on Sat 18th Oct at 2.30pm. Please let me know if you would like any put aside for you. Liz will talk about her new book, The Poppy Factory. Liz McCafferty of Felixstowe Reading Group has very kindly reviewed the book for us and it should be published in the Felixstowe supplement of the East Anglian Daily Times on Wednesday 1st October. In case you didn't know, Felixstowe Library has a regular slot in the EADT on the first Wednesday of every month.
The Poppy Factory tells the story of Rose whose traumatised husband returns from the front at the end of the First World War.She discovers he is now a very different man to the one she married.Her story is echoed in that of her Great Grand-daughter, Jess, who returns from a final tour of Afghanistan plagued by nightmares of her ordeal.The book shows just how difficult it can be for people facing civilian life after the horrors of war.
Fancy some cheese with a challenge? Why not come along to a quiz and help us raise funds for the library? It will take place on Friday 17th October at 7.30pm at the Labour Club. Tickets are £7.50, payable on the night, to include a ploughman's supper. You need 6-8 people in your team and all we need in advance is a name, phone number and rough idea of how many will be in your team. If you can't find enough people come along anyway and we will team you up with others. So please let me know if you are interested.Debra RoweFelixstowe Librarydebra.rowe@suffolklibraries.co.uk
