The event will be held at Blake Library. \nPelletier’s book retells the story of Evangeline\, who first appeared in Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s 1847 epic poem\, “Evangeline: A Tale of Acadie.” The literary classic recounts the hardships of the Acadian Deportation through the eyes of a 17-year-old girl searching for her lost love. \nPelletier provides a fresh take on the poem\, maintaining the historical context while adapting the characters to a more modern sensibility. This retelling in novel form for readers of all ages makes the story accessible and teachable for today’s students. \n“We always celebrate new books in Acadian history\, but this one is a special treat\,” says Patrick Lacroix\, director of the Acadian Archives. “Longfellow’s poem helped inspire a revival of Acadian pride. With Cathie Pelletier’s engaging retelling of Evangeline’s life as a refugee\, we can again draw inspiration from the struggles and resilience of our ancestors.” \nPelletier is the author of 20 books\, including her debut novel\, “The Funeral Makers\,” and\, more recently\, “Northeaster: A Story of Courage and Survival in the Blizzard of 1952.” Her other notable works include“The Weight of Winter\,” winner of the New England Book Award\, and “Proving Einstein Right\,” co-authored with S. James Gates\, Jr.\, which earned a Brown University Book Award. \nTwo of Pelletier’s books have been adapted into films. Born and raised in Allagash\, Maine\, she was inducted into the Maine Franco-American Hall of Fame in 2024. \nThis event is free and open to the public. Copies of “Evangeline’s Journey” will be available for purchase for $24.95. Pelletier will be available to discuss her work and sign copies following the presentation.

The event is free for UMFK students. All attendees will receive complimentary popcorn and a beverage. \nThis film follows three women as they sail 3\,000 miles across the North Atlantic on a 50-year-old wooden boat named Mara Noka to track how plastic waste travels from our shores to the deep ocean. \nThe voyage began in North Carolina after a year of rebuilding the vintage vessel and a month of waiting for the right winds. While skipper Kiana was a veteran of solo ocean passages\, her crew mates Lærke and Alizé began the journey with little to no sailing experience. What started as a mission to document the environmental impact of land-based waste soon evolved into a raw test of human endurance and spiritual connection. \nWomen & The Wind is more than a sailing film; it is a call to recognize the ocean as the life-force of our planet. By recording every piece of floating debris encountered daily\, the crew documented the grim reality of the North Atlantic gyre\, a large system of circulating ocean currents where plastic remains for years breaking down into microplastics.  The project was created to turn these environmental facts into a personal story that inspires people to protect our waters. \nProceeds will benefit the International Student Organization to provide bedding\, snacks and basic toiletries for new incoming international students living in the residential halls on campus. \nFor information on the event\, please contact Stacy Martin\, UMFK student life coordinator\, at stacy.martin@maine.edu. \n  \nEditor’s Note: This film is not rated and includes scenes containing nudity.
