Literary Bites - Fever2021-03-25T18:00:00Do you love great books and fabulous food? Then you’ll want to join us, along with our friends from Calvert Library, as, each month, we read, discuss, and digest one of our favorite culinary novels. This month we’re reading Fever. Mary Beth Keane has written a spectacularly bold and intriguing novel about the woman known as “Typhoid Mary,” the first person in America identified as a healthy carrier of Typhoid Fever. Fever is an ambitious retelling of a forgotten life. In the imagination of Mary Beth Keane, Mary Mallon becomes a fiercely compelling, dramatic, vexing, sympathetic, uncompromising, and unforgettable heroine.
