After returning home from a week of school appearances in Houghton, Painesdale, and Baraga, Michigan, (and spending an enjoyable evening at the Portage Library) I received a a package of thank-you notes from the students in the Jeffers Middle School. My favorite was from Lana, who used the cover of my novel, The Journal of Otto Peltonen, to inspire her art work!

I’ll be discussing my latest novel, THE HIDDEN ROOM,  which is set in Ukraine during the last year of WWII,

as well as my earlier novels.  Autographed books will be available.

Event starts at 6:00 p.m.

Stop by and say hi.

“The Hidden Room” is a novel by Duluth authors William Durbin and Barbara Durbin, set in Ukraine near the end of World War II. Written for young adults, it’s based on the true story of a Jewish family who took to a cave to hide from the Nazis. It’s a poignant survival story, anchored in specific details and propelled by the Durbins’ direct prose. The authors are donating half their royalties to Ukraine food assistance; the Durbins will be at the Bookstore at Fitger’s on Saturday at 3 p.m. to present their new book.

I’ll be signing books at the Pine City Fur Post Fall Festival on Saturday, September 15.”
