Meet the Author: Mary Lawson (Putney Library)

Putney Library will be greeting acclaimed author Mary Lawson, writer of Crow Lake and A Town called Solace.

Mary was in her 50s when she published her first novel – Crow Lake – and it became a New York Times bestseller alongside a number of awards. Her second novel, The Other Side of the Bridge, appeared on the Booker Prize longlist.

Librarian – and fellow Canadian – Charlene Coleman will be interviewing Mary about her writing process, her love of the Canadian landscape, and why success was a surprise.
