Program Description

Event Details

Join us to discuss Matrix, by Lauren Groff. Copies of the book are available at the service desk or online through Cloud Library.

Cast out of the royal court by Eleanor of Aquitaine, deemed too coarse and rough-hewn for marriage or courtly life, 17-year-old Marie de France is sent to England to be the new prioress of an impoverished abbey, its nuns on the brink of starvation and beset by disease. Matrix gathers currents of violence, sensuality, and religious ecstasy in a mesmerizing portrait of consuming passion, aberrant faith, and a woman that history moves both through and around. 

Space is limited. Registration required. Please email or call for more information.
