SUMMARY:Smut: An Unseemly Story (The Greening of Mrs. Donaldson)
DESCRIPTION:One of England’s finest and most loved writers\, Alan Bennett\, explores the uncomfortable and tragicomic gap between people’s public appearance and their private desires in this tender and surprising story. In The Greening of Mrs. Donaldson\, a recently bereaved widow finds interesting ways to supplement her income by performing as a patient for medical students\, and renting out her spare room. Quiet\, middle-class\, and middle-aged\, Mrs. Donaldson will soon discover that she rather enjoys role-play at the hospital\, and the irregular and startling entertainment provided by her tenants.A master storyteller dissects a very English form of secrecy with this story of the unexpected in otherwise apparently ordinary lives.  Directed by Amy Kossow.

SUMMARY:Megan Miranda
DESCRIPTION:In The Perfect Stranger\,  the masterful follow-up to the runaway hit All the Missing Girls\, a journalist sets out to find a missing friend\, a friend who may never have existed at all. \nConfronted by a restraining order and the threat of a lawsuit\, failed journalist Leah Stevens needs to get out of Boston when she runs into an old friend\, Emmy Grey\, who has just left a troubled relationship. Emmy proposes they move to rural Pennsylvania\, where Leah can get a teaching position and both women can start again. But their new start is threatened when a woman with an eerie resemblance to Leah is assaulted by the lake\, and Emmy disappears days later. \nDetermined to find Emmy\, Leah cooperates with Kyle Donovan\, a handsome young police officer on the case. As they investigate her friend’s life for clues\, Leah begins to wonder: did she ever really know Emmy at all? With no friends\, family\, or a digital footprint\, the police begin to suspect that there is no Emmy Grey. Soon Leah’s credibility is at stake\, and she is forced to revisit her past: the article that ruined her career. To save herself\, Leah must uncover the truth about Emmy Grey—and along the way\, confront her old demons\, find out who she can really trust\, and clear her own name. \nEveryone in this rural Pennsylvanian town has something to hide—including Leah herself. How do you uncover the truth when you are busy hiding your own? \nMegan Miranda is the author of several books for young adults\, including Fracture\, Hysteria\, Vengeance\, and Soulprint. She grew up in New Jersey\, attended MIT\, and lives in North Carolina with her husband and two children. Her novels for adults include All the Missing Girls and Watch Me Go.
