SUMMARY:Deborah Lee Luskin Brings REVIVING ARTEMIS & INTO THE WILDERNESS to One Grand Books & the 108 in Narrowsburg, NY
DESCRIPTION:\n\nJoin Author Deborah Lee Luskin on 5/9 at 2pm for an author talk and signing of her memoir at the 108 in Narrowsburg, NY.\nAn intimate conversation with Deborah Lee Luskin on fear, freedom, and finding one’s place in the natural world.\n\n\n\n\nReviving Artemis: The Making of a Huntress\nJoin One Grand Books at the 108 for a special afternoon with Deborah Lee Luskin, author of Reviving Artemis: The Making of a Huntress, a memoir of transformation, risk, and later-in-life awakening.\nRaised in suburbia and long rooted in domestic life, Luskin spent decades teaching literature, tending animals, and cultivating the land. But at sixty, something shifted. Drawn beyond the safety of the garden and marked trails, she stepped into the untracked forest to learn to hunt deer—confronting fear, uncertainty, and the unknown.\nReviving Artemis explores Luskin’s fraught relationship with firearms, the imprint of personal tragedy, and the way stepping into the woods reshapes how she sees both nature and her community.\nWhether you come to this work through an interest in memoir, the natural world, or the enduring question of how we change, this is an opportunity to hear from a writer who has followed her curiosity into the woods—and returned with a story to tell.\nThe event is free and open to the public. A reading, conversation, Q&A, and book signing will follow.\n\n\nSave your spot HERE ( https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-making-of-a-huntress-author-talk-with-deborah-lee-luskin-tickets-1987006980367?aff=oddtdtcreator )\nAbout Reviving Artemis:\nAn aging woman finds her place in the natural world as a huntress.\nReviving Artemis is the unlikely story of a woman raised in mid-twentieth-century suburbia who lived in New York City as a young adult and moved to Vermont in 1984. For more than thirty years, she raised domestic livestock, kept bees, and cultivated fruits and vegetables while teaching literature and telling stories. But when she turned sixty, something shifted. Luskin was overtaken by a primal urge to step out of the garden, off the blazed trails, and into untracked forest by learning to hunt deer. Deeply personal, lyrically told, and funny, Reviving Artemis reveals Luskin’s ambivalence about guns and her fear of entering the forest alone in the dark.\nShe persisted, using her literary acumen to read the forest and, as thoughtfully as she hunts for words, to hunt for deer. With the stories of Artemis, goddess of the hunt, childbirth, and wild nature to inspire her, Luskin became a huntress, determined to age fiercely and compelled to tell this story of finding her place in the natural world.\n\nAbout Deborah Lee Luskin:\nDeborah Lee Luskin moved from New York City to Vermont in 1984 to write, garden, keep bees, and raise daughters. Luskin has been an editorial columnist, radio commentator, pen-for-hire, and blogger. Her first novel, Into the Wilderness, won the Independent Publishers Gold Medal for Regional Fiction. Luskin has also enjoyed a long career as an educator, teaching writing and literature-based humanities classes to gifted elementary writers, college students, new adult readers, life-long learners, healthcare workers, and prison inmates. She holds a PhD in English Literature and expected to become an academic, not a deer hunter. She lives in Vermont with her husband, their dog, usually a cat, and a variable number of chickens.\n
