Two local
authors, B.A. Shapiro and Maryanne O’Hara, will discuss their recent fiction at
the Leventhal-Sidman Jewish Community Center (333
Nahanton Street) in Newton on Tuesday, November 5.
Shapiro’s The Art Forger is a New York Times best-selling novel about the Isabella Stewart
Gardner Museum heist that spans three centuries of forgers, art thieves, and
obsessive collectors. She lives in Boston teaches creative writing at
Northeastern University.
O’Hara’s Cascade was a People Magazine Pick and Boston
Globe Best of the New, 2012 that chronicles the life of a struggling artist
in a fictional Massachusetts town. Her short
stories have appeared in numerous magazines and anthologies.
