CLARA’S RIB – A True Story of a Young Girl Growing up in a Tuberculosis Hospital

Please join us to hear Ottawa Author Anne Raina talk about Clara’s Rib, the true story of a young girl coming of age in a tuberculosis hospital in the 1940s and 1950s. Clara’s story focuses mainly on her years growing up in ‘the San’ in Ottawa. Discover why, when Clara left the San for the last time, one of her own ribs was packed in her suitcase. Seven of Anne’s siblings had tuberculosis, with two of her brothers and her father dying of the disease. Anne relates how she came to understand this disease that so ravaged her family.

Anne has been invited to speak about Clara’s Rib across Canada. She was a keynote speaker at the 2012 Ontario Lung Association Conference held in Toronto – TB: Making a Difference; and has presented to Hospitals, Libraries, Museums, Medical Organizations, the Ottawa Medical School; Historical Societies, Faith Communities, Schools, Probus Clubs, Book Clubs and Community Groups. Call the library at 613-932-4796 to reserve your seat for this event and others.
