Book Discussion

The book discussion group meets the third Thursday
of every month at 7 pm at the Library conference room.

"Books are humanity in print."
-Barbara W. Tuchman

 

April 17, 2008  at 7:00 pm
 

In April, the group will discuss The Echo Maker  by Richard Powers.  Powers delivers a compelling examination of what happens when a person loses his sense of self.

Optional: Meet at 6 p.m. for dinner at the Laughing Lizard.
