Please join us for a unique and moving event featuring celebrated author Stephen P. Kiernan, as he reads from his novel Universe of Two, with organist Jeffrey Mead.

From the critically acclaimed author of “The Baker’s Secret” and “The Curiosity” comes a novel of conscience, love, and redemption—a fascinating fictionalized account of the actual mathematician Charles B. Fisk, a gifted mathematician who was drafted into Manhattan Project and ordered against his morals to build the detonator for the atomic bomb. With his musician wife, he spent his postwar life seeking redemption—and they found it together.

Universe of Two combines riveting historical drama with a poignant love story. Stephen Kiernan has conjured a remarkable account of two people struggling to heal their consciences and find peace in a world forever changed.
