Authors Andrew McCarthy and Dani Shapiro at Darien Library

Andrew McCarthy, author of Just Fly Away, and Dani Shapiro, author of Hourglass: Time, Memory, Marriage, will be featured speakers at a “Meet the Authors” event at Darien Library from 7 to 8:30 p.m. in the Darien Library Community Room. In Just Fly Away, when fifteen-year-old Lucy Willows discovers she has an eight-year-old brother living just a few blocks away — the result of her father’s brief affair — she begins to question everything she thinks she knows about her life. How could Lucy’s father have betrayed the entire family? How could her mother forgive him? And why isn’t her sister rocked by the news the way Lucy is?
