Author Dennis Lehane
You’ve read the books and seen the movies. Mystic River. Gone, Baby, Gone. Shutter Island. And The Given Day, one of his most recent books, has been hailed as a classic Great American Novel.
On Saturday, October 6, from 7-9 p.m., the Framingham Public Library Foundation presented “An Evening With Dennis Lehane”. A coffee and dessert reception was followed by a talk and a book signing by Mr. Lehane, a passionate supporter of public libraries. The New England Mobile Book Fair was on site selling Mr. Lehane’s books, and all attendees were entered in a drawing for a signed copy of his novel Moonlight Mile.
Admission to this fund raising event for the Framingham Public Library Foundation was $30 per ticket.
