SUMMARY:Author Deborah Lee Luskin brings INTO THE WILDERNESS to Wild Book Co\, Newfane
DESCRIPTION:“a perfectly gratifying read” \nAuthor Deborah Lee Luskin will talk about her award-winning political novel\, INTO THE WILDERNESS\, at Wild Book Company\, June 27 at 5 pm. \nIn 1964\, Rose Mayer buries her second husband and wonders what she’s going to do with the rest of her life. Reluctantly\, she visits her son’t summer place in Vermont\, where there are neither sidewalks\, Democrats\, nor other Jews. There is\, however\, the Marlboro Music Festival. It’s there that she meets Percy Mendell\, and it’s dislike at first sight. Percy’s a born and bred Vermonter who has never married\, never voted for a Democrat\, and never left the state.

Set against the backdrop of Vermont’s changing politics and seasons\, INTO THE WILDERNESS is a testament to the endurance of the human heart. \n

SUMMARY:Author Talk: Deborah Lee Luskin Speaks about her memoir\, Reviving Artemis
DESCRIPTION:Join author Deborah Luskin as she discusses her memoir\, Reviving Artemis: The Making of a Huntress. Reviving Artemis is the unlikely story of a literature teacher that raised domestic livestock\, kept bees\, and cultivated fruits and vegetables\, who\, at the age of sixty\, was overtaken by a primal urge to step out of the garden\, off the blazed trails\, and into untracked forest to learn to hunt deer. Deeply personal\, lyrically told\, and funny\, Reviving Artemis reveals Luskin’s ambivalence about guns and her fear of entering the forest alone in the dark. \nBriar Patch Books will have copies of Reviving Artemis for sale at this event. \n \nDeborah Lee Luskin moved from New York City to Vermont in 1984 to write\, garden\, keep bees\, and raise daughters. Luskin has been an editorial columnist\, radio commentator\, pen-for-hire\, and blogger. Her first novel\, Into the Wilderness\, won the Independent Publishers Gold Medal for Regional Fiction. Luskin has also enjoyed a long career as an educator\, teaching writing and literature-based humanities to gifted elementary writers\, college students\, new adult readers\, lifelong learners\, healthcare workers\, and prison inmates. She lives with her husband in Southern Vermont. \nDeborah has just been named an Artemis Ambassador by the National Wildlife Federation. \nDeborah Lee Luskin has been living and writing about Vermont for over 40 years.

SUMMARY:Reading at Norwich Bookstore
DESCRIPTION:oin authors Deborah Lee Luskin and Ellen B. Rockmore for a reading from their new books Reviving Artemis and The Given-Up Girl! \n\n\n\n\n\nAt sixty\, longtime writer\, gardener\, and teacher Luskin feels a wild new calling to leave the safety of her garden and learn to hunt deer. Reviving Artemis follows her late-in-life transformation as she confronts fear\, embraces the forest\, and reclaims a primal connection to nature while learning to age on her own fierce terms. \nThe Given-Up Girl: Bonnie Koller trades skirts for jeans and her innocence for independence when she attends Halstead College in 1969. An unwanted pregnancy forces her to navigate a pre-Roe America\, a boyfriend consumed with fear of the draft\, incompetent doctors\, and corrupt hospitals put her livelihood at risk.Twenty years later\, Bonnie is determined to find the daughter she bore and gave up–if the given-up girl even wants to be found. \nDeborah Lee Luskin moved from New York City to Vermont in 1984 to write\, keep bees\, and raise daughters. She has been an editorial columnist\, radio commentator\, pen-for-hire\, and blogger. Her first novel\, Into the Wilderness\, won the Independent Publishers Gold Medal for Regional Fiction. Luskin has also enjoyed a long career as an educator\, teaching writing and literature-based humanities classes. She holds a PhD in English Literature and expected to become an academic\, not a deer hunter. She lives in Vermont with her husband\, their dog\, usually a cat\, and a variable number of chickens. \nBorn and raised in Manhattan\, Ellen B. Rockmore was once a New York lawyer. But for the past eighteen years she has taught expository writing at Dartmouth College. She lives in Hanover\, New Hampshire\, with her husband and three children. Fortunately\, only two of them play hockey. Ellen recently began a two-year term as a state legislator in the New Hampshire House of Representatives. Her essay titled “How Texas Teaches History” was published in the New York Times.

SUMMARY:Reviving Artemis at Northshire Bookstore\, Manchester\, VT
DESCRIPTION:After thirty years cultivating fruits and vegetables\, raising children\, and teaching literature\, Deborah Lee Luskin stepped out of her garden and into the forest. At sixty\, it was time to age fiercely\, overcome her suburban fear of getting lost in the woods and her urban reliance on street signs to know where she was. She wanted to forge her own path through the forest by following the deer. A dedicated locavore\, Luskin didn’t want just to read the landscape\, she also wanted to eat it. \nLuskin overcame her ambivalence about guns as she gained a deeper understanding of the hunter’s role in the ecosystem of the northern forest. Her literary acumen helped her read the landscape and—as thoughtfully as she hunts for words—to hunt for deer. With the stories of Artemis\, goddess of the hunt\, childbirth\, and wild nature to inspire her\, Deborah became a deer hunter. Reviving Artemis is her story of finding her place in the natural world. \nReviving Artemis: The Making of a Huntress \nDeborah Lee Luskin has been living and writing about Vermont for over 40 years.
