Join Vermont Book Shop for a conversation with two award-winning Vermont writers – Helen Whybrow and Ethan Tapper.

Helen and Ethan will talk about how their lives inspired their recent books, The Salt Stones and How to Love a Forest, both meditations on land, place and stewardship. Helen and Ethan will discuss their books, their writing practices, and how their work and their writing informs their relationship to place.

Her other titles include Dead Reckoning (W. W. Norton, 2001) and A Man Apart (Chelsea Green, 2015).
