HSHA Author’s Talk<\/strong>
\nSunday, December 10
\n4:30-6:30 PM
\n254 Walnut St.<\/a><\/p>\n

High Street Hill is loaded with artists, musicians, and authors. To celebrate and continue a new tradition, the High Street Hill Association is proud to present a neighborhood author’s talk, featuring\u00a0Jessica Shattuck. She will reflect on her\u00a0New York Times\u00a0<\/em>Bestselling novel,\u00a0The Women in the Castle\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/em>— the story of three German widows living together in a crumbling castle in Bavaria in the immediate aftermath of World War II. Their husbands were executed for their participation in the 20th of July 1944 plot to assassinate Hitler, but the women’s own beliefs and experiences span the gamut of the German political spectrum. A novel as much about complicity as it is about resistance,\u00a0The Women in the Castle\u00a0<\/em>offers a new and different look at WWII\u00a0from the German point of view. Shattuck, who is herself of German descent, will share with us how she came to write the book and what she learned in her research about this time.<\/p>\n

Hosted by Anthony Flint & Tina Cassidy<\/p>\n

254 Walnut Street, Brookline<\/a><\/p>\n

Wine & cheese will be served<\/p>\n
