London Reads Presents: Exit Lines - Mar. 11

 

You might think life in a retirement home would be boring, but in the Idyll Inn of Joan Barfoot’s latest marvelous novel, not everyone feels ready for the quiet life. As seniors begin to settle into the latest retirement facility in their small city, four of them form their own little group dedicated to small acts of pleasurable rebellion. In their pasts they’ve had a few connections, both faint and bold, with each other. One resident hopes to make use of them soon, for a challenging act that needs undertaking in the dead of night. Celebrity reader and Western Faculty member, Mike Atkinson hosts the monthly discussion at Huron University College, Great Hall at 7:00 p.m. RSVP to programs@uwo.ca or call 519-661-2111 x 85739.
