In Person: Karen Babine in Conversation with Marya Hornbacher at Open Book

Join Karen Babine and Marya Hornbacher at Open Book for a reading and discussion of Karen’s forthcoming book, The Allure of Elsewhere.

ABOUT THE BOOK

One woman’s cross-country journey to explore the hold family history has on our lives, and the power of new stories to shape what lies ahead.

In her mid-thirties and happily single, Karen Babine hitches up her tiny Scamp camper and sets out with her two unenthusiastic cats, Galway and Maeve, on a journey from her home in Minnesota to Nova Scotia to explore the place where her French-Acadian ancestors settled in North America…

This event is free and open to the public. Please RSVP via eventbrite to help us plan.
