Morning Book Discussion - This Other Eden In-Person

This Other Eden by Paul Harding

In 1792, formerly enslaved Benjamin Honey and his wife, Patience, discover an island off the coast of Maine where they can make a life together. Over a century later, the Honeys' descendants and neighbors are poor, isolated, and often hungry, nevertheless protected from the hostility awaiting them on the mainland. Inspired by the forced resettlement of Malaga Island's isolated mixed-raced community in 1912 Maine.
