Event Details

Join local author Dan O'Hare for a conversation about his novel, Water Dressed in Brown, and the importance of place in writing.

"As the first two kids in the newly developed community of Ocean Pines, Maryland, Laura and Trey are thrown together constantly, inevitably becoming best friends. In the autumn of their junior year of high school, just as their friendship might be developing into something more, a sudden violent night changes everything.

Set to a soundtrack of the early 1990's, Water Dressed in Brown explores family, friendship, and love in the waning days of the analogue age. As they stumble in their rush to become adults, two best friends must decide what they owe each other and what they owe themselves." (from the cover)
