Book Review:
John Boyne’s epic covers the life of a gay Irishman, Cyril Avery, in the late half of the twentieth century from the time of his birth and adoption to his later decline and eventual death in the present day. Dickensian in scope has all the trappings of a nineteenth century novel, with its elaborate plot points, its twists and turns of fate and coincidence, and its ribald characterizations.

A gay Holocaust survivor confronts the man whoboth saved and broke him. In 1968 New York City, 42-year-old waiter Charles Ward recognizes a restaurant patron as Berthold Werden, a fugitive German paramilitary soldier from Auschwitz going by a different name.

Third Time’s the Charm
East Central Minnesota Pride to Host 2026 LGBTQ+ Silver Social for Seniors and Allies
Feb. 15, 2026 | 11 a.m.–3 p.m. | Braham Event Center
BRAHAM, Minn.
East Central Minnesota Pride, the first rural Pride event in the nation, will host its third annual LGBTQ+ Silver Social from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Feb. 15 at the Braham Event Center. The event, held in Braham, the Homemade Pie Capital of Minnesota, brings together LGBTQ+ seniors and allies from Pine, Isanti, Chisago, Kanabec and Mille Lacs counties for connection, community and conversation.
The event includes a free lunch served at 11:45 a.m., featuring pizza pies from Pizza Pub and homemade dessert pies in celebration of Braham’s pie tradition. Attendees can enjoy an afternoon of activities, including a pie walk, drag bingo, live music, a pie social and opportunities to meet with local vendors and organizations that support older adults.
Natalie Matthewson of the Central Minnesota Council on Aging will speak on issues affecting aging LGBTQ+ adults and their allies. Event organizer and East Central Minnesota Pride board member Val Mondor said the Silver Social has become a highlight for many in the region. “It’s community building at its finest,” Mondor said. “It’s inspirational, silly, fun, informative. We’re a demographic so susceptible to isolation; the Silver Social reconnects us with our kin.”
The event is funded in part by the Initiative Foundation, a regional organization dedicated to improving quality of life in Central Minnesota. More information is available at EastCentralMinnesotaPride.org. About East Central Minnesota Pride East Central Minnesota Pride promotes a supportive, inclusive and visible LGBTQ+ community in the region. Through events such as the Silver Social, the organization creates welcoming spaces where people of all ages can connect and celebrate their authentic selves
