Program Description

Description

Our book for May is Light in August by William Faulkner, set in the early 20th century American South, which tells the story of Joe Christmas, who eventually becomes a fugitive in the small town of Jefferson, Mississippi.  The book also weaves in the stories of the other townsfolk, and explores issues of race, identity, and societal pressures.

Do you love reading classic books? Do you want to get out of your comfort zone and finally read the classics you've never read? Well, this is your book club! We read older classics, modern classics, and even some non-fiction from time to time.
