Aldrich Book Discussion

 

Second Monday at 7:00 p.m. and
Second Wednesdays at 1:00 p.m.

All are welcome. Multiple copies of the book are available at the library. Whenever available, we have large print, audio-cassette and audio-CD formats of the book in addition to regular print.


"This is what a book does at its best: It conjures life.

A reading group, in turn, allows us to share that life---to relate the words on the page to the hopes that are with us when we wake, to the dreams that are with us when we sleep, and to the myriad issues we confront in all those hours in between." Chris Bohjalian
