The 2023 One Book One Town title was written by a resident of Fairfield! This year’s OBOT selection is I Keep Trying to Catch His Eye by Ivan Maisel.  It is an honest and emotionally deep memoir in which Ivan reflects on the loss of his dear son Max to suicide, the impact of grief on family and community, and the painful journey which brings Ivan to a place of seeing grief as an expression of love.

Ivan Maisel will be appearing at the Fairfield University Quick Center for the Arts on Tuesday, March 28^th at 7:00pm.  Event registration opens on 2/28 at 9am. Register on the Fairfield Public Library's website here

A full list of OBOT programs is to follow; many of them will include professionals who work in the counseling field. Details will be added to the events page as they become available.
