Love and Summer, by William Trevor will be the topic of a book discussion on Monday, January 10, from 5:30-7:00pm at Darvill’s Bookstore in Eastound. The discussion will be lead by Jean Spalti.
In spare, exquisite prose, master storyteller William Trevor presents a haunting love story about the choices of the heart, and the passions and frustrations of three lives during one long summer.
Ellie is a shy orphan girl from the hill country, married to a man whose life has been blighted by an unspeakable tragedy. She lives a quiet life in the Irish village of Rathmoye, until she meets Florian Kilderry, a young photographer preparing to leave Ireland and his past forever.
The chance intersection of these two lost souls sets in motion a poignant love affair that requires Ellie to make an impossible choice.
All are welcome to attend this free event.
