MARQUETTE — The Peter White Public Library invites the public to attend a virtual presentation by author Maryka Biaggio on her newest novel “Eden Waits” at 7 p.m. Wednesday.

Eden Waits is an historical fiction novel, set during the late 19th century in the Upper Peninsula. In 1893, preacher Abraham Byers and his wife Elizabeth establish a homestead, the Hiawatha Colony, a product sharing community of family and friends. Can this utopian experiment survive the harsh Michigan winters, the antagonism of the outside world, and even internal strife?

Biaggio is a former psychology professor turned writer, specializing in the dramatization of real life historical figures and events. Her first novel, “Parlor Games,” was published in January 2013. Visit her web page at www.marykabiagiio.com.

The Zoom ID for this event is 836 8442 5653, password EdenWaits.
