Join us for an evening with local author Peter Deakin as he takes us on a historical thrill ride through the Dark Ages with his book, The Parchment. Picture this: a precious parchment that holds the secrets to the long-lost language of the Pharaohs, and it all kicks off in good old Egypt when Alexandria finds itself in a bit of a pickle in 641 AD. You know, the usual drama—conquered city, ancient secrets, and perhaps a sprinkle of romance for good measure.

If you're in the mood for a night of tales that combine adventure and intrigue while simultaneously pondering why we can't just text the Pharaohs instead, this is the place to be. Plus, you'll have a chance to snag a copy of the book for yourself while pretending you're not just there for the free snacks. So, swing by Bathurst Library at 5:30 PM on January 31, 2025, and dive into a story where history meets romance—and who knows, you might just learn a thing or two about ancient languages or how to dodge invading armies.
