We'll discuss The Great Divide by Cristina Henriquez. Books are available at the Adult & Teen Services Desk one month before each discussion.

It is said that the Panama canal will be the greatest feat of engineering in history. But first, it must be built. Henríquez tells the stories of migrant laborers, locals, and others affected by the Panama Canal project. A sweeping tale of ambition, loyalty, and sacrifice.
