On Friday, September 10 at 7:00 pm, The Brattleboro Literary Festival continues its 20th anniversary year with a very special Literary Cocktail Hour featuring four female memoirists and the books that tell their stories.

Megan Culhane Galbraith is a writer, visual artist, and an adoptee. She is the author of "The Guild of the Infant Saviour: An Adopted Child's Memory Book," a hybrid memoir-in-essays.

Keema Waterfield's book "Inside Passage, " is the story of her growing up chasing music with her twenty-year-old mother on the Alaskan folk festival circuit, two small siblings in tow.

"In Wait for God to Notice," Sari Fordham writes about her childhood in Uganda during and after the dictatorship of Idi Amin.

Gina Troisi's book, "The Angle of Flickering Light" is a memoir about parental deception and infidelity; it explores what it means for a girl to run recklessly into womanhood, clinging to any version of love, making temporary homes for herself again and again.

These four writers will be in conversation with local author and activist Diana Whitney.

Free and open to the public, but donations always welcome.
