The Atlantic Highlands Public Library will host local author Teresa Irizarry from 7-8 p.m. June 2 at 100 First Ave. She will sign copies of her new book, “Rekindled,” a 17th-century historical novel.
The book is a thought-provoking, finely detailed portrait of the struggles to implement a practical separation of church and state during the first half of the 17th century. Historical social pioneer Roger Williams’ motivations, influences and challenges of domestic and overseas authorities are chronicled.
The event is free, and copies of the book will be available for purchase. For more information, visit www.rekindled.info.
