In celebration of Brattleboro Area Hospice's 40th Anniversary
A Wild Life: Growing Through Life's Challenges
With New York Times bestselling author Cheryl Strayed
Tuesday, June 25, 7:30 pm
Latchis Theater, Downtown Brattleboro, VT
Cheryl Strayed is the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling memoir Wild, a book that inspired Oprah Winfrey to revive the tremendously popular Oprah's Book Club and Reese Witherspoon to bring Wild to the big screen in 2014.
At twenty-six, grieving the death of her mother, Strayed hiked more than a thousand miles of the Pacific Crest Trail from the Mojave Desert through California and Oregon to Washington State alone. Told with suspense and style, sparkling with warmth and humor, Wild powerfully captures the terrors and pleasures of one young woman forging ahead against all odds on a journey that maddened, strengthened, and ultimately healed her. Strayed will discuss her revelations from the trail, including how we bear the unbearable, how we move from grief and anger to acceptance, and how we keep walking even when it seems impossible to stand.
Ticket prices range from $25 to $100 and can be purchased online at www.brattleborohospice.org.
Limited VIP tickets are available to meet Cheryl before the show, contact Brattleboro Area Hospice for more information. Call Brattleboro Area Hospice directly for wheelchair accessible seating. After the event there will be a book signing in the lobby of the Latchis.
