The Sippican Historical Society Speaker Series presents author Lauren Wolk on Thursday, August 24, 6:30 pm at the Marion Music Hall.
Wolk’s award-winning and beautifully written novels for young adults are a delight for all ages. Winner of the Scott O’Dell prize for historical fiction and recipient of multiple Best Book of the Year awards, Beyond the Bright Sea takes place on Buzzards Bay in the 1920s on Cuttyhunk and Penikese islands. Wolk’s first novel, Wolf Hollow, was also named Best Book of the Year by many publications as well as being a Newbery Medal Honoree and a New York Times bestseller.
Wolk will discuss her writing technique, where she finds inspiration and ways to research and build stories. A reception and book signing will follow the talk; books will be available for sale.
