SUMMARY:Book Launch: Tom Shachtman\, A JERICHO’S COBBLE MISCELLANY
DESCRIPTION:Join author Tom Shachtman in conversation for the launch of his new book\, A JERICHO’S COBBLE MISCELLANY (April 2026\, Madville Publishing)\, a genre-bending novel depicting a New England town through over 100 voices. Told via diaries\, letters\, and objects\, it explores community\, history\, and tension. \nThis “miscellany” is a portrait of a fictional New England small town over the past several hundred years\, celebratory and insightful\, its stories recounted by more than a hundred voices\, those of the living—white\, Black\, Native American\, male\, female\, gay—and of the dead\, and also of inanimate objects—a neglected upright piano\, a bench along a nature trail—in poems\, dialogues\, roadside markers\, tombstones\, business brochures\, newspaper articles\, a playlet\, diary entries\, oral history transcripts\, a stitched sampler\, and even a nursery rhyme. Some tales are of quiet happiness\, others of roiling passions\, moral quandaries\, tragedy and comedy; above all they speak to the centrality of community and continuity in our lives.
