The Woods Hole
Public Library’s new Short Story Discussion group will continue on Wednesday,
February 24, at 7:30 PM. The conversation is led by librarian Kellie Porter,
who holds a Master’s degree in literature.
This month’s
selections are two stories by Andrea
Barrett, from her story collection Ship Fever. The stories are "The Behavior of
the Hawkweeds" and "Birds with No Feet." In "The Behavior
of the Hawkweeds," the story of growing alienation between a professor and
his wife is set against a backdrop of the story of Gregor Mendel and his
growing disillusionment with science. "Birds with No Feet" tells the
story of a young naturalist working in the Malay Archipelago at the same time
as Alfred Russell Wallace, who developed a theory of evolution by natural
selection contemporaneously with Darwin.
Both of these stories deal with real historical science, the people doing science, and the way
it affects their lives.
Ship Fever won the National
Book Award in 1996.
Interested individuals should call the Library at 508-548-8961 to register and
stop by to pick up copies of the stories
at the circulation desk.
