Professors to talk about Mosher

PLAINFIELD — The Cutler Memorial Library will host two presentations on the works of Vermont author Howard Frank Mosher tonight at 6 p.m.
The talks by two visiting English professors from Purdue University, James Saunders and Renae Shackelford, will serve as the inaugural event for the Howard Frank Mosher Society.
Saunders’ presentation, titled “Howard Frank Mosher’s ‘A Stranger in the Kingdom’ and Harper Lee’s ‘To Kill a Mockingbird,’” will examine the parallels between Mosher’s story and Lee’s timeless tale.
Shackelford’s talk, called “My Conversations with Howard Frank Mosher: A Photographic Presentation of His Northeast Kingdom,” is a series of photos taken in many of the towns where Mosher set his stories.
The event is free and open to the public. For more information visit www.cutlerlibrary.org or call 802-454-8504.
