Maine author David S. Florig is thrilled to announce the release of his third novel, Negative Peace. Negative Peace follows the journey of Joshua Sheehan, a Bucksport, Maine native who rises from Mayor of Bucksport to President of the United States. He has a plan – he wants to create a lasting world peace. It might only be Negative Peace, but it would be a start. What could be any easier?

Since the Olympic sport of curling plays a role in Negative Peace, audience members will be introduced to the sport and given the chance to touch and feel a genuine curling stone made of 60-million-year-old Scottish granite. They will also learn the basics of the game and the peculiar, specialized equipment that it is played with.

The author will read from his new book and answer audience questions.
