New at the library this week
"Charity Girl" by Michael Lowenthal - a novel about a young girl sent to a detention camp for women with venereal disease by the U.S. Government during World War I.
"The Dead Fathers Club" by Matt Haig - a funny quirky tale with dead, murdered fathers appearing to adolescent sons - shades of Hamlet.
"Ten Days in the Hills" by Jane Smiley - newest work of Pulitzer Prize winning Smiley, a Hollywood tale with Boccaccio as a model.
