Event Details

Open for Discussion is a drop-in book discussion group. The group focuses on expanding reading horizons through thought-provoking books. All are welcome to come and converse. Title of the month: The Sentence by Louise Erdrich. A small independent bookstore in Minneapolis is haunted from November 2019 to November 2020 by the store's most annoying customer. Flora dies on All Souls' Day, but she simply won't leave the store. Tookie, who has landed a job selling books after years of incarceration that she survived by reading with murderous attention, must solve the mystery of this haunting while at the same time trying to understand all that occurs in Minneapolis during a year of grief, astonishment, isolation, and furious reckoning.
Copies of the book will be available at the Adult Information Desk about four weeks in advance while supplies last.
