SUMMARY:Adult Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Tuesday\, September 29\, at 6:30 for a discussion on this month’s book\, Animal Farm by George Orwell. \nA farm is taken over by its overworked\, mistreated animals. With flaming idealism and stirring slogans\, they set out to create a paradise of progress\, justice\, and equality. Thus the stage is set for one of the most telling satiric fables ever penned–a razor-edged fairy tale for grown-ups that records the evolution from revolution against tyranny to a totalitarianism just as terrible. \nWhen Animal Farm was first published\, Stalinist Russia was seen as its target. Today it is devastatingly clear that wherever and whenever freedom is attacked\, under whatever banner\, the cutting clarity and savage comedy of George Orwell’s masterpiece have a meaning and message still ferociously fresh. \nThis is perfect to read during Banned Books Week\, September 27-October 3!

SUMMARY:Adult Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Thursday\, October 29\, at 6:30 for a discussion on this month’s book\, Pretty Monsters by Kelly Link\, this year’s NEA Big Read Selection. \nKelly Link has lit up adult literary publishing\, and Viking is honored to publish her first YA story collection. Through the lens of Link’s vivid imagination\, nothing is what it seems\, and everything deserves a second look. From the multiple award-winning The Faery Handbag\, in which a teenager’s grandmother carries an entire village (or is it a man-eating dog?) in her handbag\, to the near-future of The Surfer\, whose narrator (a soccer-playing skeptic) waits with a planeload of refugees for the aliens to arrive\, Link’s stories are funny and full of unexpected insights and skewed perspectives on the world.

SUMMARY:Adult's Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our discussion of The Tattooist of Auschwitz by Heather Morris. We’ll be meeting early again this month because of Christmas. Copies are available for pickup now. \nIn April 1942\, Lale Sokolov\, a Slovakian Jew\, is forcibly transported to the concentration camps at Auschwitz-Birkenau. When his captors discover that he speaks several languages\, he is put to work as a Tätowierer (the German word for tattooist)\, tasked with permanently marking his fellow prisoners. \nImprisoned for more than two and a half years\, Lale witnesses horrific atrocities and barbarism—but also incredible acts of bravery and compassion. Risking his own life\, he uses his privileged position to exchange jewels and money from murdered Jews for food to keep his fellow prisoners alive. \nOne day in July 1942\, Lale\, prisoner 32407\, comforts a trembling young woman waiting in line to have the number 34902 tattooed onto her arm. Her name is Gita\, and in that first encounter\, Lale vows to somehow survive the camp and marry her. \nA vivid\, harrowing\, and ultimately hopeful re-creation of Lale Sokolov’s experiences as the man who tattooed the arms of thousands of prisoners with what would become one of the most potent symbols of the Holocaust\, The Tattooist of Auschwitz is also a testament to the endurance of love and humanity under the darkest possible conditions.
