About this Event
Mary O’Donnell will read from her compelling new novel, Sweep the Cobwebs off the Sky. The book explores the lives of three older women, two daughters and their 93-year-old mother, and how returning to the family home awakens bitter memories of childhood abuse. The house itself is haunted by a poltergeist, reflecting the inner distress experienced by the novel’s protagonist.
