Siren's Storm
“Saturday marks the 375th anniversary of the founding of Walfang, which was—along with Boston, Salem, and New York City—one of the eastern seaboard’s most important port towns during colonial times.

It could have been the library in any small town, except that the names of the authors who were scheduled to perform readings were the kind of names you saw in New York City, for a fee. Every author in the Hamptons wanted to appear there, both to show how “community-oriented” they were and to prove that they belonged in the famous-authors club.
