Book Talk with Howard Mansfield

This prolific writer has become well known in this area for his articles in Yankee Magazine, one of which was about Romaine Tenney.  For this event he will be focusing on his latest book, Chasing Eden: A Book of Seekers, which has been described as follows:

In this remarkable book, Howard Mansfield re-mystifies the cold, hard land of the American northeast. He unearths parades of seekers---Shakers who love God and TV, divorced men who haunt the hiking huts of Mount Washington, Pocumtucks who paddle downstream to offer a mercy that will go unreturned. His prose is at turns arresting with its poignancy and laugh-out loud funny.  —LULU MILLER, author of Why Fish Don’t Exist and co-host of “Radiolab”
