Former Norwood High School hockey player Matt Brown will speak at the Morrill Memorial Library on Monday, May 13 at 7:00 p.m. to talk about his new book, “Line Change: A True Story of Resilience in the Face of Adversity,” co-authored by Todd Civin.    

Matt Brown’s life changed immeasurably on January 23, 2010 when he struck the boards during a Norwood High hockey game. Left paralyzed, unable to use his arms or legs, Matt decided to live life “differently” but never gave up.

Matt’s injury and continued recovery have been well-documented in the local media. In his new book, readers can gain an insight into the positive approach Matt and his family have exhibited on his road to recovery. “Line Change,” which reached No. 1 on Amazon’s list of bestselling new releases, is not just a book about hockey. It is a love story, an inspiration, and a step-by-step manual of the rules needed to overcome any of life’s obstacles.
