Author website: http://www.emdanforth.com
The Miles City Public Library is proud to host Miles City native and highly-acclaimed author, emily m. danforth for a book talk and signing. Refreshments provided afterwards. Copies of "Miseducation" will be available for purchase at the event.
Reviews and Accolades for "Miseducation":
"Rich with detail and emotion, a sophisticated read for teens and adults alike." -Kirkus Reviews *starred review*
"The story is riveting, beautiful, and full of the kind of detail that brings to life a place (rural Montana), a time (the early 1990s), and a questioning teenage girl." -Publishers Weekly *starred review*
"Describing a book as "important" is a compliment, but it can also seem to detract from its literary quality - as if its significance is more about its message than its sentences. The Miseducation of Cameron Post is indeed an important book - especially for teens growing up today in communities that don't accept them for who they are. But it is also a skillfully and beautifully written story that does what the best books do: It shows us ourselves in the lives of others." -Malinda Lo, NPR
For more information on this event, please contact the Miles City Public Library (1 S 10th St, 234-1496).
