Emerson, Thoreau…Fuller? If you’re missing Margaret Fuller from your knowledge of the famous Concord Transcendentalists, it’s time to discover this incredible woman. She lived in Groton and was one of the most influential people of her time.

Read Allison’s page-turning novel (available at the library and digitally on Libby) and join our programs throughout the month to learn more about this brilliant journalist, critic, and champion of education, dedicated to social justice and intellectual growth.

Margaret defied societal expectations and lived a bold and independent life, making her a vital figure whose ideas and actions continue to resonate and inspire today.
