The Berkshire County Historical Society welcomes Gail Gelburd to Arrowhead for a talk about her new book, The Liberation of Sue Moody: Slaying Dragons. Based on the journals and letters of former Otis resident Sue Moody, the book is a gripping chronicle of a woman from the Berkshires who, as a journalist in 1939 Paris, endured war, hunger, and constant threats to her safety, yet refused to lose her voice or her sense of identity. Gelburd, a member of the Otis Historical Commission, scoured through boxes of Moody’s papers researching her novel resulting in an authentic telling of lived moments written with the weight of fear, exhaustion, and determination.
