Author Talk with Margart Willson

Author Talk with Margart Willson

Margaret Willson, the author of "Seawomen of Iceland," will visit Homer to talk about her new book, "Woman, Captain, Rebel: The Extraordinary True Story of a Daring Icelandic Sea Captain". The book is a stunning historical account of Thurídur Einarsdóttir, a fearless woman who contested social norms while simultaneously becoming a respected captain, stood up for justice for herself and her fellow Icelanders —and also solved one of the country's most notorious robberies. Both horrifying and magnificent, this story will captivate readers from the first page and keep them thinking long after they turn the last.

Copies of the book will be available through the Homer Bookstore and on sale at the event.

Author Talk takes place at the Homer Public Library on Friday, March 24, 2023 from 6:15 PM - 7:45 PM or via Zoom
