PLEASE NOTE THE DATE CORRECTION: THE FIRST SATURDAY OF DECEMBER!
Debbie Russell will bring her not-quite memoir Crossing Fifty-One to the Wadena City Library on Saturday, December 6th.
In Crossing Fifty-One, Debbie Russell parallels her midlife identity crisis with her grandfather’s 1951 admission to a federal "narcotic farm." While caring for her dying father, she unearths family secrets via old letters, using generational history to navigate grief, addiction, and dysfunctional dynamics, ultimately finding a path to healing.
The Wadena City Library is part of the Kitchigami Regional Library System and is located at: 210 1st Street, Southwest, Wadena, Minnesota, 56482
