FLORENCE-Here are just a few upcoming events brought to you by the Florence-Lauderdale Public Library for the rest of this month (February) and into March. Come to your local Library it’s not just for reading anymore.
Book Talk/Signing: Rainy Street Stories by John W. Davis
Sunday, February 23, 2:00 pm
Join us at the library as John W. Davis discusses his book, Rainy Street Stories.
Rainy Street Stories is a composition of powerful reflections on today’s espionage, terrorism, and secret wars. These stories, essays, and poems by John Davis, himself a retired intelligence officer, take place from Europe, to Asia, and back to the Americas. He lived overseas for many years, where he served as a soldier, civil servant, and gifted linguist. Davis writes with a thoughtful, compassionate, and fair assessment of his lifetime lived during wars and conflicts which were his generation’s legacy from World War II. He recounts mysterious, sometimes strangely suggestive, even curiously puzzling tales.
