Join Mechanics’ Hall and Longfellow Books for an engaging author conversation.

Celebrate the launch of Mia Millefoglie’s Daughters of Stone and Tide: Loss and Resilience in a Fisherman’s Family with acclaimed author Susan Conley.

“Rooted in Gloucester’s storied waterfront, Daughters of Stone and Tide is both a love letter to the city’s disappearing fishing industry and to the resilient community that shaped generations. As questions of identity and belonging resonate more deeply than ever, Millefoglie explores family, immigration, heritage, and the questions of where—and to whom—we belong. Through one woman’s journey, the memoir reveals how women often need to leave the places that threaten to erase them before returning to reclaim their story and reconcile with the past.

Together, Millefoglie and Conley will explore the craft of memoir, tracing the author’s journey of self-inquiry, the truths she uncovered, and those that remain sealed.”
