Damaged Goods

When Brendan O'Shays estranged sister dies unexpectedly, he inherits something

unimaginable-custody of her frozen eggs. The discovery forces him, his wite Laura, and their teenage son Shannon to confront grief, loyalty, and the haunting question of what it means to bring a part of Cassie back to life. Set in New England during the 2008 financial crisis, Damaged Goods is a work of literary family fiction that explores the fault lines between ambition and compassion. As Brendan's success on Wall Street collides with the unraveling of his home life, his search for nurturing parents for the frozen eggs becomes a journey through love, forgiveness, and the fragile boundary between redemption and self- destruction. With the emotional depth of Ann Patchett, the realism of Richard Russo, and the moral tension of Ian McEwan, Damaged Goods is a family drama that lingers long after the last page.

Paul Scheufele is the author of Damaged Goods, a compelling debut novel that blends literary storytelling with the emotional depth of upmarket fiction. Before pursuing fiction full-time, he worked in finance, ultimately becoming a Managing Director at a global investment bank. He and his wife Susan split their time between Boston and Truro.

Immigration Enforcement, ICE, and the Border Patrol: An American History with Rachel Ida Buff

Since 2025, the Customs Border Patrol (CBP) and Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) have expanded radically to become the largest agencies in the US federal government. Communities around the country, in Minneapolis, Portland, OR, Chicago, and Maine, have experienced "surges" of masked federal agents targeting immigrant communities. Licensed by the Supreme Court to stop people based on their "foreign appearance,," these operations have resulted in thousands of detentions and deportations. They have taken legal permanent residents as well US citizens working to protect immigrant neighbors. This talk considers this current reality from a historical perspective, tracing the evolution immigration enforcement and the militarization of the US- Mexico border from the nineteenth century into the present. In addition, it discusses the long history of immigrant rights advocacy.

Rachel Ida Buff is a writer, immigrant rights advocate, and working historian currently teaching at the University of Wisconsin- Milwaukee. She has published in a wide variety of public-facing as well as academic outlets, her most recent book being the bilingual glossary of terms, A is for Asylum Seeker: Word for People on the Move/ A de Asilo: Palabras para Personas en Movimiento. Currently, she is working on a book entitled The Gangster Buffs of Charleston: Jewish Safety in a 20" Century Appalachian City.

Seeing Joy

Beatrice, one of America's first career women, is still feisty at ninety-six. She lives with her daughter Alexandra, who has moved to Cape Cod to care for Bea while running a bed-and- breakfast out of their beloved old house. Like so many adult children caring for elderly parents, Alexandra must balance her new job as caregiver with her role as daughter - and it isn't easy. Bea is demanding and very verbal. Her mind is like a fireworks display on a drizzly Fourth of July-some shots fizzle out, but there are still bits of brilliance. After a knee ailment confines Bea to bed, it becomes clear her life will soon end. Convinced nothing comes next, Bea declares she doesn't want to die. When deceased friends and family start "visiting" Bea's bedroom, Alexandra wonders if her mom is hallucinating. Or could these visits have deeper meaning? Bea entertains her "guests" by hosting tea parties and reliving treasured memories. She reveals an unexpected kind of joy to Alexandra - a joy that brings peace and chases away the fear of death as they experience their final days together.

Alexandra Grabbe is the author of The Nansen Factor: Refugee Stories. She worked in journalism and broadcasting while raising three bicultural children in Paris, France. For a dozen years, she ran an eco-friendly Wellfleet bed-and-breakfast. Now living in Arlington, Massachusetts, she continues her life-long passion as an author. See Alexandragrabbe.com for links to her freelance writing.

Stephen Sondheim Art Isn’t Easy

Stephen Sondheim was a towering figure in American musical theater. Celebrated for such iconic Broadway shows as Company, Sweeney Todd, and Into the Woods, his accolades include eight Tony Awards, multiple Grammy Awards, an Academy Award, and a Pulitzer Prize. In this intimate biography, Daniel Okrent follows Sondheim through the tumult of his upbringing and his parents divorce, his life-changing relationship with Oscar Hammerstein II and subsequent immersion in musical theater, and his rise to fame as both a lyricist and composer. Okrent shines new light on Sondheim's complicated emotional life, wavering self- confidence, and alcoholism, drawing on the artist's intimate correspondence with such notable figures as Hal Prince, Leonard Bernstein, and Arthur Laurents; exclusive interviews with his close friends and collaborators, including James Lapine and John Weidman; and Sondheim's own oral history, which remained closed until his death. As Okrent explores the ways Sondheim's music and lyrics express the inner man, he shows us a life that was defined by two parallel arcs: the movement from alienation to connection, and from ambivalence to resolution.

For many years now, Dick Morrill, a local treasure and well-known raconteur, has been wowing audiences at Mosquito Story Slams and elsewhere with his true stories from a lifetime of hilarious and sometimes hair-raising adventures. Like the time he taxied a Boeing 707 through a blinding snowstorm, having had no previous experience doing such a thing even in good weather. And the time he figured out how to drive two cars at the same time. A stroke of genius! And you’ll never forget his completely original take on growing up Catholic.

As an actor, Dick was one of the founders of the Wellfleet Harbor Actors’ Theatre and has appeared on many local stages, including the Academy Playhouse, Cape Cod Repertory Theatre, the Harwich Junior Theater, the Harbor Stage, WHAT for Kids and, of course, WHAT. He was also a founding member of the Narrow Land String Band and will be joined this evening by fellow Narrow Land-er Stephen Russell, on guitar and vocals.

A splendid time is guaranteed for all. All ADULT audiences that is.

The Cape Cod Chamber Music Festival is pleased to present a special performance by the prestigious Danish String Quartet, “one of the best quartets before the public today” (The Washington Post). The in-demand GRAMMY®-nominated ensemble performs classical repertoire as well as sophisticated arrangements of traditional Nordic folk tunes, which they have explored for over a decade; they’ve released three albums of this work, the last two both chosen as one of the top classical albums of the year by NPR and The New York Times.

The Boston Globe said, “Even by today’s high standards, [the Danish String Quartet] offers something very special.” These “excitingly aggressive rockers” (Los Angeles Times) with “rampaging energy” “seemed to sing, dance, strut, and glide their way through the music” (The New Yorker). In addition to Maurice Ravel’s String Quartet, the Danish String Quartet will perform original works based on Nordic folk music composed and arranged for them.
