The Hobbs Library Speakers Series welcomes award-winning writer Meredith Hall at 7 p.m. on Thursday, June 16, via Zoom.

Hall’s 2007 memoir, “Without a Map,” was instantly recognized as a classic of the genre and became a New York Times bestseller. It was named a best book of the year by Kirkus and BookSense, and was an Elle magazine Reader’s Pick of the Year. Publishers Weekly calls her first novel, “Beneficence,” “Powerful… Hall’s meticulous prose convincingly captures the daily realities … of agricultural life and offers insight into the ways calamity fractures family bonds.”
