Author Frances Greenslade will discuss her latest novel Shelter at the Williams Lake Library on Tuesday, Nov. 1 starting at 7 p.m. in the library program room.

Set in Williams Lake and the Chilcotin, Shelter is already generating a lot of buzz in the lakecity.

It is the story of two sisters, Maggie and Jenny, and their quest to find out what happened to their mother who left them to billet in Williams Lake, and never came back.

Set in the 1960s and 70s in the wilds of the Chilcotin, where it’s still possible to lose yourself, the novel explores the attachment we have to our mothers, and the expectation we hold that they will always be our mothers, and nothing more.

The evening will include conversation, and book signing.

Donations and book sale proceeds will be given to the Potato House Sustainable Community Society.
