The author of a moving novel about family and music, Marcia Peck, will be giving a talk about her book Water Music. The book recounts the throes of twelve-year-old Lily Grainger as the adult world penetrates the innocence of childhood. Written in Peck's melodious prose, "Water Music" tells the story of Lily as she attempts to navigate the intertwined conflicts and rivalries of her family.
Marcia Peck, a cellist with the Minnesota Orchestra, is a prize-winning short story writer, whose work has appeared in Chautauqua Journal, New Millenium Writers (first prize), Flashquake (first prize), and Gemini Magazine, and elsewhere. Her prose is inspired by the rhythms and sounds of music echoed in language.
