Book Discussion Group

Wednesday, March 6, 2024 - 4:00pm


Book Discussion Group.

The March selection is What We Talk About When We Talk About Books by Leah Price. Reports of the death of reading are greatly exaggerated. Digital-age pundits warn that as our appetite for books dwindles, so too do the virtues in which printed, bound objects once trained us: the willpower to focus on a sustained argument, the curiosity to look beyond the day's news, the willingness to be alone. The shelves of the world's great libraries, though, tell a more complicated story.

Pick up a copy at the front desk or drive-thru. The group meets the first Wednesday of each month. New members always welcome. For ages 18+.

April 3 selection: The Latehomecomer by Kao Kalia Yang.
