Come hear Falmouth-raised author Sarah DiGregorio discuss her new work, Early: An Intimate History of Premature Birth and What It Teaches Us About Being Human, on Saturday afternoon, February 15th, at 2 p.m. at the Falmouth Public Library.  She will read from her book and take questions from the audience. The book will be available to buy after the talk from Eight Cousins Books.

“Inspired by the author’s harrowing experience giving birth to her premature daughter, a compelling and empathetic work that combines memoir with rigorous reporting to tell the story of neonatology—and to meditate on the questions raised by premature birth.” (publisher)
