The Adel library is excited to welcome Minnesota author Frederick Blanch for a reading and signing of his latest book on Wednesday, August 28th at 2:00 p.m.

Mr. Blanch is an accomplished writer of poetry, prose, and scripts; his latest book of writings is called “Last Words: Frederick’s Bionary.”

“Last Words” was published in September of 2011, and received a nomination for a Minnesota Book Award.

The word Bionary comes from combining the words biography and dictionary, and the book follows a dictionary format of boldfaced “words” followed by “definitions,” ranging from a few words to several pages.

Library hours are:
Mondays and Fridays, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Tuesdays through Thursdays, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Saturdays, 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.
