We'll discuss The Woman They Could Not Silence by Kate Moore. Books are available at the Adult & Teen Services Desk one month before each discussion.
1860: As the clash between the states rolls slowly to a boil, Elizabeth Packard, housewife and mother of six, is facing her own battle. The enemy sits across the table and sleeps in the next room. Threatened by Elizabeth's intellect, independence, and outspokenness, her husband of twenty-one years is plotting against her and makes a plan to put her back in her place. One summer morning, he has her committed to an insane asylum.
Coffee and donuts will be served.
