Local author’s memoir recounts facing fear, learning to hunt deer

BRATTLEBORO - On Friday, November 7, from 6:30 to 8:30 pm, celebrate the launch of the new memoir, “Reviving Artemis: The Making of a Huntress,” with local author Deborah Lee Luskin, with a discussion and book signing at Brooks Memorial Library, 224 Main Street.
“Reviving Artemis” reveals Luskin’s ambivalence about guns and fear of entering the forest alone in the dark.
Luskin persisted, learning to read the forest and, as thoughtfully as when hunting for words, hunted for deer. With the stories of Artemis, goddess of the hunt, childbirth, and wild nature as inspiration, Luskin became a huntress, determined to age fiercely and compelled to tell this story of finding a place in the natural world.
