Author Edwidge Danticat Discusses Her Novel, Claire of the Sea Light

Two-time National Book Award finalist Edwidge Danticat will discuss her latest novel, Claire of the Sea Light, as the culmination of the Wilmette Public Library's 2014 One Book, Everybody Reads program.  Ms. Danticat will sign books after the program, and The Book Stall at Chestnut Court will have books available for purchase.
