Tuesday, October 9, 1:00 pm at Killingworth Library. Join us as we discuss The Only Girl in the World: a Memoir by Maude Julien. The author was raised in isolation by a tyrant of a father determined to make her a super woman capable of surviving a world facing catastrophe. His methods, more than cruel, border on the insane. Her mother is a mere tool of his plan, a plan going back to the mother’s own childhood. Love of the few animals that come her way and of literature and music sustain what might have been a shriveled heart. The book is a page turner. Extra copies are available at the circulation desk. Newcomers always welcome!
