Please join us for a reading, discussion and signing of Qualities of Light by Mary Carroll Moore. The story explores the budding of forbidden romance in the face of family tragedy, the forging of a new relationship between a daughter and her gifted, difficult parents, and an adolescent girl's confrontation with her own qualities of light and darkness. "Sensitive exploration of the cruelty and kindness-the intricate balancing act-that is family love. I couldn't recommend it more highly," says Minnesota Book Award winner Ellen Hart. Qualities of Light has been nominated by Bella Books for the prestigious PEN/Faulkner Award.
