In conversation with Paul Bochner
Saturday, March 7, 2026 @ 2pm
Oceanside Public Library
30 Davison Ave.
Oceanside, NY 11572
Author Paul Bochner will be in conversation with author Carol Hoenig about Penelope: The World of Each Other, a charming story about how an injured and disabled fawn appears at his door in Hudson Valley. Living wild and free, from that night a bond of love and trust deepens between a man and a deer. With words and photographs, Bochner shares an incredibly rare experience. He is an award-winning filmmaker and recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship in painting. He has written for the Atlantic and The New Yorker. Books will be available for purchase.
