SUMMARY:Special after-hours event--THISTLEFOOT!
DESCRIPTION:Thistlefoot makes its way to Brooks Memorial Library! \nBrattleboro\, VT ~ Join us for a special after-hours celebration of local author GennaRose Nethercott and her debut novel\, Thistlefoot\, Friday\, January 27\, 7:00 pm at Brooks Memorial Library\, 224 Main St. in Brattleboro. Steeped in the folklore of Eastern Europe\, this tour-de-force tale journeys through generations of heartbreak\, horrors and heroism\, from Russia to Brattleboro\, on the chicken feet of Baba Yaga’s house. A ripping yarn filled with rivalry\, romance\, regret and redemption\, Thistlefoot has received accolades from readers and reviewers alike. \nGENNAROSE NETHERCOTT is a writer and folklorist. Her first book\, The Lumberjack’s Dove\, was selected by Louise Glück as a winner of the National Poetry Series. Whether authoring novels\, poems\, ballads\, or even fold-up paper cootie catchers\, her projects are all rooted in myth—and what our stories reveal about who we are. She tours nationally and internationally performing strange tales (sometimes with puppets in tow) and composing poems-to-order for strangers on an antique typewriter with her team\, the Traveling Poetry Emporium. The presentation will feature puppets\, crankies and immersive reading. It promises to be an unforgettable evening\, and not for the faint-hearted. \nBooks will be available for sale and signing from Everyone’s Books. Sponsored by the Friends of Brooks Memorial Library. \nThe program is free and open to the public and is accessible to people in wheelchairs.  For more information call the library at (802) 254-5290.

SUMMARY:Sci-Fi Reading Group-Please Note Date Change
DESCRIPTION:Due to the Martin Luther King\, Jr. Holiday\, the Sci-Fi Reading Group will meet Tuesday\, January 17th in the Quiet Reading Room from 7-8:30 pm to discuss Stories of Your Life and Others by Ted Chiang. \nFrom Goodreads:  “What if we discovered that the fundamentals of mathematics were arbitrary and inconsistent? What if there were a science of naming things that calls life into being from inanimate matter? What if exposure to an alien language forever changed our perception of time?….These are the kinds of outrageous questions posed by the stories of Ted Chiang.” \nThe Sci-Fi Reading Group Meets the third Monday of every month and is open to readers and dreamers of all ages. Even those who haven’t read the book are welcome to join! We are always taking suggestions for books for future discussions. Physical and eBooks available from the library.

SUMMARY:Engaged Buddhism and American Politics Today
DESCRIPTION:With Rev. Doctor Thomas Redden \nMain Reading Room 7:00 pm \nOptional meditation in Community Meeting Room\, 6:15 – 6:40 \nBeginners welcome at 6:00 for an introduction \nWhat if the Buddhist values of loving-kindness and compassion were at the heart of a political philosophy\, what we might call a ‘Politics of Compassion\,’ in 21st century USA?  Explore the Buddha’s world\, his politics\, and what an ‘Engaged Buddhism’ looks like in the US today through a series of three programs with Rev. Dr. Thomas Redden\, PhD\, Professor Emeritus of Political Science and History\, Southern Vermont College & Marlboro College\, and ordained Zen Buddhist priest\, Zen Peacemaker Order. \nThe series: \nThe Buddha’s World: October 19. The historic Buddha lived at a time of dramatic change technologically\, economically\, socially and politically. Dr. Redden will examine those changes and how the Buddha’s teachings challenged the traditional Brahmanism of his day and resonated with his many followers. \nThe Buddha as Political Actor: November 16. As the leader of religious community numbering in the thousands in Eastern India\, the Buddha needed to maintain good relations with the local kings and communities in order to thrive in a very political and often violent environment.  As a result\, he developed distinctive leadership styles toward his followers as well as the local rulers. Above all\, he was pragmatic\, non-dogmatic and flexible. \nEngaged Buddhism and American Politics Today: December 21.  With the global climate crisis and other daunting political issues clearly in their sight\, a variety of leading ‘Engaged Buddhists\,’ such as the Dalai Lama\, argue that our search for happiness through consumerism and naked self-interest is leading us down a path of self-destruction.  Engaged Buddhism works toward personal and social transformation with the aspiration of creating societies based on compassion and justice. \nThe lectures will be held in the Main Reading Room at 7 pm. Each presentation will be preceded by a short period of Zen meditation in the Community Meeting Room from 6:15-6:40 for those interested. Beginners are welcome to arrive at 6 for a brief introduction. \nThe program is free and open to the public. The venue\, 224 Main St. in Brattleboro\, is accessible to people in wheelchairs.  For more information visit www.brookslibraryvt.org or call 802-254-5290 ex 1201.

SUMMARY:Sci-Fi Reading Group December Meet Up
DESCRIPTION:The Sci-Fi Reading Group will meet Monday\, December 19th in the Quiet Reading Room from 7-8:30 pm to discuss This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone. \nFrom Goodreads:  “Among the ashes of a dying world\, an agent of the Commandant finds a letter. It reads: Burn before reading. Thus begins an unlikely correspondence between two rival agents hellbent on securing the best possible future for their warring factions. Now\, what began as a taunt\, a battlefield boast\, grows into something more. Something epic. Something romantic. Something that could change the past and the future.” \nThe Sci-Fi Reading Group Meets the third Monday of every month and is open to readers and dreamers of all ages. Even those who haven’t read the book are welcome to join! We are always taking suggestions for books for future discussions.
