Book Discussion Series for Adults


Please join us for some lively discussions of a variety of types of books. You can register and pick up a copy or a recording of each book at the Reader's Advisory Desk. (Please Note: It is not necessary to read the book to attend the discussion.) All book discussions are held in the Library Program Room, Terrace Level.

SATURDAY, APRIL 17 - 1:30-3:30 p.m. - Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace...One School at a Time by Greg Mortenson. After a failed attempt to scale the earth's second highest peak, K2, the author stumbles into an isolated mountain village in Pakistan. Mortenson is sheltered for seven weeks by the village of Korphe; in return, he promised to build the improverished town's first school. This project has developed into the Central Asia Institute, which has constructed over 50 schools in Pakistan and Afghanistan. Sandy Zagarell of Oberlin College will be the discussion leader.

MONDAY, MAY 17 - 6:00-8:00 p.m. - Franklin and Lucy: Mrs. Rutherford and Other Remarkable Women in Roosevelt's Life by Joseph Persico. The author studies the women in Roosevelt's life, from his mother, Sarah, Eleanor, Lucy Rutherford, Missy Lehand, and various other cousins and admirers. The book gives an intimate portrait of Eleanor and Franklin and leaves you with a sense that it was the women in Roosevelt's life that helped him achieve his triumphs. Dennis McMullen and JoAnn Eckenfels of Sandusky Library will be the discussion leaders.

 

We also offer book discussions for "Tweens" (ages 7-12) and Teens (ages 12-18).  Check out the Teen Programs on our website for more informaiton.
