Meeting Room Both (Max Capacity 100)

We'll discuss James by Percival Everett. Books are available at the Adult & Teen Services Desk one month before each discussion.

From Percival Everett-a recipient of the NBCC Lifetime Achievement Award and finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, Booker Prize, and numerous PEN awards-comes James, a retelling of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, both harrowing and ferociously funny, told from the enslaved Jim's point of view.
