Peter Canellos author talk at Grafton Library

GRAFTON, Vt. – Please join us at the Grafton Public Library on Wednesday, May 27, from 6:30-8 p.m., for a very special neighbor-to-neighbor discussion series program – our first of 2026.

We are honored to host award-winning author and journalist Peter Canellos as he discusses his most recent book, “Revenge for the Sixties: Sam Alito and the Triumph of the Conservative Legal Movement.”

Canellos began his journalism career at the Boston Globe and more recently served as executive editor at Politico. He has received numerous citations for his work, including being named a finalist for the 2022 Pulitzer Prize for nonfiction.

A graduate of Columbia Law School, Canellos is noted for his writing about the Supreme Court. In his book “Revenge for the Sixties,” Canellos examines the forces that shaped Justice Samuel Alito’s judicial career and outlines why understanding Alito’s story is essential to understanding the future of American law and democracy.

There will be time for a Q&A after Canellos’ presentation, and signed copies of Canellos’ book will be available for purchase. It is necessary to register to attend this event, as seating is limited and the program will not be recorded. Please email librarian@graftonpubliclibrary.org to register.
