The Quabbin Reservoir is the largest inland
body of water in Massachusetts. Created in
the 1930’s by the flooding of 4 western Massachusetts towns, the
412 billion gallon reservoir covers an area of 39 square miles
with 181 miles of shoreline. The Secret Lives
of the Quabbin Watershed is the culmination of 3 years of work
by the author, photographing the activity of animals within this
diverse habitat.
Copies of the book will be available
for purchase and signing.
Light refreshments will be served.
Dale Monette, a local wildlife photographer, will have a collection of his prints on display in the Library's Exhibit Gallery throughout the months of May and June.
In May, the Book Group will be reading Brother, I'm Dying by Edwidge Danticat. In a deeply personal memoir, the best-selling author of Krik? Krak! describes her relationships with the two men closest to her--her father and his brother, Joseph, a charismatic pastor with whom she lived after her parents emigrated from Haiti to the U.S.--in a poignant story of family, love, grief, tragedy, hope, and triumph.

Books available at the Main Circulation Desk.
