SUMMARY:Explorations Read-Aloud: "John of John" by Douglas Stewart
DESCRIPTION:Every Friday\, at 11:00 am\, on the library’s YouTube Channel and Facebook Page\, the library will stream a brand new recording of local thespian\, Joseph Coté reading aloud selections from a wide variety of fascinating and entertaining books of fiction and non-fiction. \n\n\n\nFor June 19\, Coté will read aloud from Douglas Stewart’s John of John. \n\n\n\n\nNamed a MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK of 2026 by The New York Times\, Washington Post\, Los Angeles Times\, TIME\, Oprah Daily\, and Vogue\n\n\n\n“Douglas Stuart brilliantly weaved a layered\, compelling and yet so intimate a story of identity\, what it means to belong\, and the courage to claim your own truth.”—Oprah Winfrey\n\n\n\n“One of 2026’s literary triumphs.”—Boston Globe\n\n\n\n\nFrom the Booker Prize-winning and New York Times bestselling author of Shuggie Bain and Young Mungo comes a vivid\, moving novel following a young man returning to his Hebridean island home\, a portrait of a father’s expectations and a son’s desires \n\n\n\nOut of money and with little to show for his art school education\, John-Calum Macleod takes the ferry back home to the Isle of Harris in the Outer Hebrides to find that little has changed except for him. He returns to the windswept croft and the two pillars of his childhood: his father John\, a sheep farmer\, tweed weaver\, and lay preacher in the local Presbyterian church\, and his maternal grandmother Ella\, a profanity-loving Glaswegian whose steady warmth helped Cal weather the sudden departure of his mother. \n\n\n\nCal privately wonders if any lonely men might be found on the barren hillsides of home\, while John is dismayed by his son’s long hair\, strange clothes\, and seeming unwillingness to be Saved. But Cal isn’t the only one in the croft house who is keeping secrets. As lambing season turns to shearing season\, the threads holding together the community together become increasingly frayed\, and nothing will remain as it was before. \n\n\n\nJohn of John is a singular novel about duty\, passion\, and the transformative power of the truth. It is a magnificent literary work that cements Douglas Stuart’s reputation as one of our greatest novelists working today. \n\n\n\nClick the links to find the library’s YouTube Channel and Facebook Page. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThoughts to share?

SUMMARY:Readings from "A Tale of Love: More Prison Poems" by Mahvash Sabet\, translated by Sandra Lynn Hutchinson | RSVP now!
DESCRIPTION:Camden Public Library welcomes poet\, professor\, and translator Sandra Lynn Hutchinson to share her recently published translation of A Tale of Love: More Prison Poems by Baháʼí prisoner of conscience Mahvash Sabet. This program will take place on Tuesday\, June 16 at 6:30 PM in the Picker Room. \n\n\n\nWhat is a life of courage? The prison poems of Mahvash Sabet answer this question… \n\n\n\n“My pen’s broken/ and it’s not in my hand./ They took my voice/as a spoil of oppression…”  — so PEN Pinter Writer of Courage and longtime prisoner of conscience Mahvash Sabet wrote from the depths of Tehran’s notorious Evin prison. What does it take to survive a twenty-year-long prison sentence as a poet who is a member of a persecuted minority? How do you write when you have no pen or paper? Come and listen to Mahvash’s Sabet’s testimony about a life of letters lived against all odds\, as set down in her second book of prison poems\, A Tale of Love\, translated from Persian to English by Dr. Sandra Lynn Hutchison of Orono and Shahin Mowzoon\, with an introduction by the 2023 recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize\, Narges Mohammadi. \n\n\n\nPlease RSVP below to save your seat! \n\n\n\nHutchinson writes in her introduction: “It is hard to imagine a more consequential body of poetry than that which a skilled craftsperson might produce from within the confines of a prison cell. And\, without doubt\, the poems of Mahvash Sabet speak more powerfully than any other form of advocacy could ever hope to of the anguish suffered as well as the victories won in the course of an unjust imprisonment.” \n\n\n\n\n\nFill out my LGL Form!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHutchinson continues: “In A Tale of Love\, her second volume of poems\, Mahvash Sabet\, a Baháʼí imprisoned for practicing her faith in the Islamic Republic of Iran\, bears witness to the horrors and hard-won triumphs of life in an Iranian prison\, where she has been forced to work out her own salvation in the most solitary way: by setting down her thoughts and experiences in poetry. \n\n\n\n“Readers with the courage to enter the world of Sabet’s prison cell… will be amply rewarded by the powerful testimony her poems give of the remarkable resilience of the human spirit.” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSandra Lynn Hutchison is the author of a books of poetry\, as well as numerous essays and articles. Her translation\, with Shahin Mowzoon\, of Mahvash Sabet’s second volume of prison poems\, A Tale of Love\, was published in 2024. \n\n\n\nHutchison holds a Ph.D. in English literature\, with a specialization in modern poetry\, from the University of Toronto. She has taught at universities in Canada\, Hong Kong\, China\, India\, and the United States\, most recently at the University of Maine.  \n\n\n\nHutchison has been the recipient of various academic recognitions and literary awards\, including a Killam Postdoctoral Research Fellowship\, an Emily Dickinson Poetry Award\, and a Jane Kenyon Poetry Fellowship from Bennington College. She lives in Orono\, Maine\, where she teaches scriptural exegesis and mentors writers in courses she offers through the Wilmette Institute. She also serves as faculty for the BIHE (Bahá’í Institute for Higher Education)\, an online university in which she teaches journalism and storytelling to Bahá’í youth who are banned from attending public universities in Iran. She is the founder and editor of elixir-journal.org\, an online journal of the arts.

SUMMARY:Explorations Read-Aloud: "The Turn of the Screw" by Henry James
DESCRIPTION:Every Friday\, at 11:00 am\, on the library’s YouTube Channel and Facebook Page\, the library will stream a brand new recording of local thespian\, Joseph Coté reading aloud selections from a wide variety of fascinating and entertaining books of fiction and non-fiction. \n\n\n\nFor June 12\, Coté will read aloud from Henry James’ The Turn of the Screw. \n\n\n\nEnter the chilling depths of a gothic masterpiece that lingers in the shadows of the unknown. \n\n\n\nIn The Turn of the Screw\, Henry James masterfully weaves a tale of psychological tension\, spectral suggestion\, and a mind caught between reason and terror. \n\n\n\nWhen a young governess takes charge of two orphaned children at the sprawling and secluded Bly Manor\, she is at first enchanted by their innocence and charm. But her sense of calm is soon disturbed by unsettling encounters and eerie figures that seem to haunt the estate.  \n\n\n\nAs her resolve to protect the children deepens\, the line between reality and delusion begins to blur. \n\n\n\nAre the apparitions she perceives genuine intrusions from beyond the grave — or manifestations of fear\, repression\, and obsession? As certainty dissolves into doubt\, both the governess and the reader are drawn into a state of mounting unease\, where every perception becomes suspect. \n\n\n\nWith its haunting atmosphere\, unsettling ambiguity\, and gothic allure\, The Turn of the Screw remains one of the most enduring and disturbing works of psychological suspense ever written — a story that refuses easy answers and lingers long after the final page. \n\n\n\nClick the links to find the library’s YouTube Channel and Facebook Page. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThoughts to share? Book ideas to suggest?Contact Joseph at friday-explorations@usa.net
