Intergenerational Book Club Announcement

On May 15th the Thomaston Intergenerational Book Club will discuss Spoonhandle by Ruth Moore. When originally published in 1946, Richard Sullivan wrote in the New York Times Book Review: 

    "A genial, easy-going novel which spreads engagingly out over the lives and affairs of some half dozen residents of a sea-coast community in Maine that is Ruth Moore's pleasant accomplishment in Spoonhandle.

This was her second novel of life on the Maine coast and was made into a Hollywood movie Deep Waters, starring Jean Peters, Dana Andrews and a young Dean Stockwell.

Please note that this meeting will begin at 2:00 P.M. to allow time to show the video after the discussion.


On the third Tuesday of each month, this group of men and women of all ages come together to share their opinions and ideas. Extra copies of the books are purchased by the Friends of the Thomaston Public Library from the Annual Appeal funds. We thank you for all donations. Please come and join us at the Thomaston Library on May 15th at 2:00 P.M. in room 208.

This event is free and open to the public.
