March book discussion will be on the book Home by Marilynne Robinson. Home is a retelling of the parable of the prodigal son. The Reverend Boughton's hell-raising son, Jack, has come home after twenty years. As a youth, Jack was devious. Now he is an alcoholic and perpetually at odds with his father although Jack is the Reverend's most beloved child. This book is about family, secrets, and faith.
The March book discussion group will meet on Thursday evening, March 15, at 7:00 pm.
We have a limited number of the book to be discussed available for check out. Ask at the circulation desk.
