SUMMARY:Afternoon Book Group: Painting the Light by Sally Cabot Gunning
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a discussion of Painting the Light by Sally Cabot Gunning. Copies can be picked up at the library. Sponsored by the Friends of the JHPL. \nAbout the book: Martha’s Vineyard\, 1898. In her first life\, Ida Russell had been a painter. Five years ago\, she had confidently walked the halls of Boston’s renowned Museum School\, enrolling in art courses that were once deemed “unthinkable” for women to take\, and showing a budding talent for watercolors. But no more. Ida Russell is now Ida Pease\, resident of a seaside farm on Vineyard Haven\, and wife to Ezra\, a once-charming man who has become an inattentive and altogether unreliable husband. Ezra runs a salvage company in town with his business partner\, Mose Barstow\, but he much prefers their nightly card games at the local pub to his work in their Boston office\, not to mention filling haystacks and tending sheep on the farm at home—duties that have fallen to Ida and their part-time farmhand\, Lem. Ida\, meanwhile\, has left her love for painting behind. \nIt comes as no surprise to Ida when Ezra is hours late for a Thanksgiving dinner\, only to leave abruptly for another supposedly urgent business trip to Boston. But then something unthinkable happens: a storm strikes and the ship carrying Ezra and Mose sinks. \nIn the wake of this shocking tragedy\, Ida must settle the affairs of Ezra’s estate\, a task that brings her to a familiar face from her past—Henry Barstow\, Mose’s brother and executor. As she joins Henry in sifting through the remnants of her husband’s life and work\, Ida must learn to separate truth from lies and what matters from what doesn’t. \nCaptured in rich\, painterly prose—piercing as a coastal gale and shimmering as sunlight on the waves—Painting the Light is an arresting portrait of a woman\, and a considered meditation on grief\, persistence\, and reinvention. (Amazon)
