The Maine Humanities Council presents “Maine Speaks: A Day in the Life of Maine Women” on Thursday, September 5 at 6 p.m. University of New England archivist and author Jefferson Navicky shares diary entries from the Maine Women Writers Collection spanning the 19th and 20th century. These women wrote about the ordinary and extraordinary—the weather, chores, and historic moments. By sampling and discussing a selection of these diaries across time, we can connect with the common struggles and small triumphs of day-to-day life.
