We’ve got Deborah coming to the Museum on September 19th to do a public reading of her book Unsayable Absence, an historical fiction set between 1900 and 1930. It is based on her grandmother's life and what happened when the J.B. King Drill Boat exploded on the St. Lawrence River just west of Brockville.

It’s great for all ages – and she’s done fantastic public readings for us in the past, she’s a very engaging storyteller.  The segment and Q&A will last between 45 minutes to an hour.  It’s supported by The Writers Union of Canada via the National Reading Program.
