His eldest daughter, Ronnie, has grown up in her father's shadow, and remains there, having missed one chance at love – and passed up another offer of marriage from an unsuitable man.But in the Advent season of 1962, as the town readies itself for Christmas, Ronnie and Doctor Troy's lives are turned upside down when a baby is left in their care. As the winter passes, father and daughter's lives, the understanding of their family, and their role in their community are changed forever.Set over the course of one December in the same village as Williams' beloved This Is Happiness, Time of the Child is a tender return to Faha for readers who know its charms, and a heartwarming welcome to new readers entering for the very first time. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/west-springfield/december-book-club-at-the-irish-cultural-center/100001972903529566 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, workshops, meetups, christmas - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: West Springfield - **state**: MA - **country**: United States - **location**: Irish Cultural Center of Western New England - **lat**: 42.1301764 - **long**: -72.64207859999999 - **full address**: Irish Cultural Center of Western New England, 429 Morgan Road, West Springfield, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: December Book Club at the Irish Cultural Center - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/738b2119ba5d41414b3daac47269dc1d2ae625ff1e5f67bef56cf30f270e7df1-rimg-w1200-h600-dc8e9e81-gmir.jpg?v=1763613679 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is December Book Club at the Irish Cultural Center being held? - **A:** December Book Club at the Irish Cultural Center takes place on Thu, 11 Dec, 2025 at 05:30 pm to Thu, 11 Dec, 2025 at 06:30 pm at Irish Cultural Center of Western New England, 429 Morgan Road, West Springfield, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing December Book Club at the Irish Cultural Center? - **A:** December Book Club at the Irish Cultural Center is organized by Irish Cultural Center of Western New England. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
