Siegrist Vermillion Public Library will host a screening of the documentary “The Mask You Live In” at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 9, as part of its ongoing Long Overdue series. The film follows boys and young men as they struggle to stay true to themselves while negotiating America’s narrow definition of masculinity. Pressured by the media, their peer group, and even the adults in their lives, our protagonists confront messages encouraging them to disconnect from their emotions, devalue authentic friendships, objectify and degrade women, and resolve conflicts through violence. These gender stereotypes interconnect with race, class, and circumstance, creating a maze of identity issues boys and young men must navigate to become “real” men. Experts in neuroscience, psychology, sociology, sports, education, and media also weigh in, offering empirical evidence of the “boy crisis” and tactics to combat it. “The Mask You Live In” ultimately illustrates how we, as a society, can raise a healthier generation of boys and young men. The film will be followed by a facilitated discussion. The Edith B. Siegrist Vermillion Public Library is located at 18 Church Street in Vermillion. For more information call the Library at 605677-7060. The Bookworm ‘Earnest’ Is A Good But Overlong Romance Story “Earnest” by Kristin von Kreisler; © 2016, Kensington; 256 pages ——— BY TERRI SCHLICHENMEYER The day you met your dog, it was love at first sight. Those big brown eyes, that silkysheened fur, butt-wiggles, even puppy breath was hard to resist. You couldn’t decide who picked whom, and it didn’t matter: on the day you met your dog, it was forever. But, as in the new book “Earnest” by Kristin von Kreisler, could the same be said for your human? The minute Anna stepped into Second Chance Shelter, she knew that she and her boyfriend, Jeff, weren’t going home alone. Jeff only wanted to “look” at the dogs — he said you got a better idea of their personalities that way — but when they met Earnest, well, that was that. He was a gorgeous 3-year-old yellow Lab and on that day, they became a family of three. That made Anna enormously happy. Earnest was a sweetheart and she loved taking him to work at her Seattle-area floral shop, which was located in an old Victorian mansion that Anna’s grandmother once owned. Anna’s shop, Plant Parenthood, was humming; Anna’s friends (business co-renters of the house) were busy; and Jeff was becoming a success at his architectural firm. Life was good.

NO WAITING! Cox Auto Jeff didn’t know how he was going to tell Anna about his work project. He hadn’t asked for it; Cedar Place was handed to him, and its completion would totally set his career. When it was done, it would be a jewel in the neighborhood, a place for community and retail, museums and families, something Jeff could be proud of. He’d thought through every single facet of it. Except for one thing: the project involved the demolition of the Victorian mansion that Anna loved. Though he had a solution to it all, she would be heartbroken. But she was more than just that. When Anna learned that Jeff was involved in the Cedar Place project, she was livid. How could he? Didn’t he think she’d be hurt? Jeff moved out of their condo. Anna filed for custody of Earnest. Jeff countered with a mediator. Anna started fighting for her beloved house. There was no way they could ever continue their relationship. But Earnest — and life — had other ideas… There are two basic things you should know about “Earnest.” It’s good, and it’s too long. On the first point, who can resist a book about a dog? I know I can’t, especially when the dog is personable but not cutesy, so I was glad that author Kristin von Kreisler is careful not to go overboard with her Earnest. He’s a charmer, but not a saccharine one. The “overboard” comes with the human characters’ back-and-forth. Anna and Jeff’s fight goes on and on and on and, well, you know. I desperately wanted them to stop already. Their heel-digging comprises the majority of this book, and it’s too much. Keep that in mind, and if you’re willing to endure it for the sake of an otherwise good boy-meets-girl-meets-dog romance, you’ll be fine. In that case, I think “Earnest” will nicely meet your needs. 1007 Broadway Ave. Yankton • 665-4494 Brian & Jean DeGroot, Owners 802 Broadway • Yankton, SD (605) 665-1596 www.bridgecityautoyankton.com FEATURED VEHICLE 2003 Dodge Caravan Silver, 156,000 miles 1 Owner $3,995 Quality Used Vehicles 2012 Mazda 2 4Dr., Black, 35,000 miles ..................................$9,795 2009 Volkswagen Jetta Diesel, 4Dr., gray, 151,000 miles ..........$8,595 2007 Pontiac G-6 Convertible, red, 29,000 miles ....................$10,995 2007 Chevy Monte Carlo, 2Dr., silver, 117,000 miles ...............$7,295 2004 Pontiac Montana Van, Maroon, 162,000 miles................$4,995 2004 Saab, 4Dr., blue, 121,000 miles ......................................$4,995 2003 Chevy Malibu 4Dr., Gray, 93,000 miles ............................$3,995 2003 Dodge Caravan Silver, 156,000 miles, 1 owner ................$3,995 2003 Pontiac Montana Van White, 161,000 miles....................$4,995 2002 Pontiac Grandprix, 4Dr., 116,000 miles ..........................$3,995 2001 Chevy C1500, 2WD, 121,000 miles .................................$4,995 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 4x4, white, 187,000 miles ............$5,595 1999 Pontiac Bonneville, 4Dr., white ........................................$3,595 1997 Mercury Marquis, 4Dr., 68,000 miles ..............................$4,995 1997 Buick Skylark, 4Dr., Tan, 142,000 miles ..........................$2,995 1996 Chevy Ext.
