Join us for a discussion of two books by author Claire Keegan. Foster and Small Things Like These are now available at the library. All are welcome to join!
“In Keegan's latest novella, a girl is dropped off at a farm in rural Ireland to live indefinitely with relatives while her mother awaits the birth of her youngest child. There, young Ann experiences a level of love, care, and attention she didn't know she was missing. And, in her blooming, her foster parents begin to come to terms with events in their past. Somehow, what Keegan doesn't put on the page manages to convey as much as what she does. Between what's written and what's not breathes an exquisite, tender, and heart-expanding story, as Keegan creates more magic in 128 pages than others could do in 928 pages.” —Vannessa Cronin, Amazon Editor
