If you’ve ever had even a passing interest in forensic crime shows like CSI, you’re going to love Deborah Halber talk about her book, The Skeleton Crew, at the Lit District’s Literary Lunch Break in South Station. Publishers Weekly says this excellent writer’s work “will be devoured by armchair detectives,” while America’s Most Wanted host John Walsh calls it “a page-turning behind-the-scenes look at the world of Internet sleuths who give names to the men and women who have died without identity.”
Certain books were “banned in Boston” at least as far back as 1651, when one William Pynchon wrote a book criticizing Puritanism.
