 g></p>\n<p>With the emotional resonance of&nbsp\;How to Read a Book&nbsp\;
 and the magical edge of&nbsp\;The Lost Bookshop&nbsp\;comes a stunning ode
  to community following one librarian who discovers a mysterious room with
  shelves of her patron's unfinished memories\, and the one memory that mig
 ht save both herself\, and her library\, from disappearing forever.</p>\n<
 p><br />In the New England coastal town of Foxhollow Bay\, librarian Clair
 e Ashford lives quietly tucked away in the centuries old library where she
  works\, keeping all things\, herself included\, in order. But when the to
 wn threatens to shut down the library\, Claire is bereft to know her safe 
 haven will be no more. That's when\, while wandering the shelves after hou
 rs\, she finds a door that shouldn't exist\, and behind it\, a room filled
  with books that no one else can see.<br />Every book she opens pulls her 
 into someone else&rsquo\;s memory. Unfinished stories and snippets of live
 s that have passed through the library long before her. And when she opens
  a book showing her a bridge with a figure standing in the center\, the me
 mory refuses to let go\, calling to her in a way that she cannot explain. 
 And when she meets Julian Thomas\, a patron who sketches the same bridge s
 he&rsquo\;s been seeing\, she realizes their lives may be tangled in ways 
 neither of them fully understands.</p>\n<p><br />With time running out and
  the library on the brink of being demolished\, Claire must confront what 
 she&rsquo\;s spent years trying to erase\, the memory she has locked away 
 that is fighting to get out\, before the truth and the library itself are 
 gone forever.<br />&nbsp\;</p>\n<p><strong>EVENT DETAILS</strong></p>\n<p>
