February 4 Meeting

Library closed due to snowstorm

 

March 3 Meeting

In March we will begin by covering February's books and then move to a selection or selections from Edgar Allan Poe in conjunction with the program the library is putting on in lieu of The Big Read. 

 

Choices for February: A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving or The Long Exile by Melanie McGrath.

Irving's fiction book narrates the tale of a remarkable boy who believes himself to be God's instrument and journeys on a truly extraordinary path.

McGrath details the true account of the involuntary 1953 relocation of three families of Canadian Inuit even farther into the barren Arctic. The book is an indignant indictment of the government while the story is the basis for the 1999 creation of Nunavut, the province with 83% native peoples.

 

Please check our revised listing of upcoming selections for future reads. Don't forget to send your suggestions to add to our list.
