The Athenaeum presents Lou Salome speaking about his new book: Thoreau, The Kid, and Mr. Lou Book Notes of a Foreign Correspondent.

Athenaeum Proprietor Lou Salome lived for a year in the New Hampshire woods where he wrote the acclaimed Violence, Veils and Bloodlines: Reporting from War Zones. He kept a daily journal detailing his life in the woods, a year when dreams, notebooks, a card game called cribbage, baseball and the natural world played vital roles in helping to banish his demons. Those thick journals are the main, but not only, source of this remarkable book on the transformative powers of words and memory.

The Providence Athenaeum and the Membership Libraries Group present Senator Sherrod Brown.

His new book, Desk 88; Eight Progressive Senators Who Changed America profiles some of the previous occupants of Senate desk number 88, which Brown has held since 2006.
