Enlisting the help of Aaron Levy\, an American graduate student as impatient as he is charming\, and in a race with another fast-moving team of historians\, Helen embarks on one last project: to determine the identity of the documents’ scribe\, the elusive “Aleph.”\nElectrifying and ambitious\, sweeping in scope and intimate in tone\, The Weight of Ink is a sophisticated work of historical fiction about women separated by centuries\, and the choices and sacrifices they must make in order reconcile the life of the heart and mind.\n\n\n \n \n Event Sign Up\n \n \n CommentsThis field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.Name*\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Email*\n \n Comments URL:https://www.irondalelibrary.org/event2/book-club-discussion-the-weight-of-ink-by-rachel-kadish/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20200818T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20200818T183000 DTSTAMP:20260823T093916 CREATED:20200805T224959Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200814T182335Z UID:10378-1597773600-1597775400@www.irondalelibrary.org SUMMARY:POSTPONED: Rejoicing Rhythms: Drum at Home!

English designer Norman Hartnell (an inspiration for “Phantom Thread”) was given the commission\, and the gown — with a 15-foot train of tulle embroidered with “York roses . . . star flowers\, ears of wheat\, jasmine blossoms\, and smilax leaves\,” plus crystal beads and pearls — was a Botticelli-inspired work of art. It’s the work behind that art that forms the through-line of Jennifer Robson’s compelling and informative novel “The Gown.” URL:https://www.irondalelibrary.org/event2/book-club-discussion-the-gown-by-jennifer-robson/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20200914T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20200914T183000 DTSTAMP:20260823T093916 CREATED:20200828T173628Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200828T173628Z UID:10395-1600106400-1600108200@www.irondalelibrary.org SUMMARY:Critter Tales with The Science Lady DESCRIPTION:Ms. Jan\, The Science Lady from Dynamic Education Adventures\, will join us on our Facebook page to read a fun animal story and introduce a real animal from the book!  URL:https://www.irondalelibrary.org/event2/critter-tales-with-the-science-lady/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20200921T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20200921T181000 DTSTAMP:20260823T093916 CREATED:20200910T193236Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210202T221139Z UID:10399-1600711200-1600711800@www.irondalelibrary.org SUMMARY:Online Story Time with Miss Tamara DESCRIPTION:Join Miss Tamara on our Facebook Page for one of her favorite picture books.

To attend\, send an email to Michelle at Librarian@IrondaleLibrary.org\, or message us through Facebook. We will send you an invitation to the Zoom Meeting along with instructions for Zoom. \nAbout the Book: The Giver of Stars by Jojo Moyes \nSet in Depression-era America\, a breathtaking story of five extraordinary women and their remarkable journey through the mountains of Kentucky and beyond\, from the author of Me Before You and The Peacock Emporium. Alice Wright marries handsome American Bennett Van Cleve hoping to escape her stifling life in England. But small-town Kentucky quickly proves equally claustrophobic\, especially living alongside her overbearing father-in-law. So when a call goes out for a team of women to deliver books as part of Eleanor Roosevelt’s new traveling library\, Alice signs on enthusiastically. The leader\, and soon Alice’s greatest ally\, is Margery\, a smart-talking\, self-sufficient woman who’s never asked a man’s permission for anything. They will be joined by three other singular women who become known as the Horseback Librarians of Kentucky. What happens to them — and to the men they love — becomes a classic drama of loyalty\, justice\, humanity and passion. Though they face all kinds of dangers\, they’re committed to their job — bringing books to people who have never had any\, sharing the gift of learning that will change their lives. Based on a true story rooted in America’s past\, The Giver of Stars is unparalleled in its scope. At times funny\, at others heartbreaking\, this is a richly rewarding novel of women’s friendship\, of true love\, and of what happens when we reach beyond our grasp for the great beyond.– From publisher’s description.

Bryan Stevenson was a gifted young attorney when he founded the Equal Justice Initiative\, a legal practice dedicated to defending the poor\, the wrongly condemned\, and those trapped in the furthest reaches of our criminal justice system. One of his first cases was that of Walter McMillian\, a young man sentenced to die for a notorious murder he didn’t commit. The case drew Stevenson into a tangle of conspiracy\, political machination\, and legal brinksmanship – and transformed his understanding of mercy and justice forever.–Back cover.
