BOOK CLUB NOV 19: Homegoing

Join us at the Library for our November Book Club!

Title: Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi
Book Club Date: Wednesday, November 19
Time: 5:30 pm
Selected by: Sarah Malinowski

A novel of breathtaking sweep and emotional power that traces three hundred years in Ghana and along the way also becomes a truly great American novel. Extraordinary for its exquisite language, its implacable sorrow, its soaring beauty, and for its monumental portrait of the forces that shape families and nations, Homegoing heralds the arrival of a major new voice in contemporary fiction.

Anna Noyes will be interviewing Yaa Gyasi at the Library on Saturday, November 8, at 5:00. Lighthouse Works and the FI Library are sponsoring this event. So, come meet the author, and then we will discuss the book further on November 19!
