Buckeye by Patrick Ryan
Wednesday, September 30
9:30am - 11:00am
Walk around Barth Pond while discussing Buckeye by Patrick Ryan. Books will be available at the Adult & Teen Services Desk one month before the discussion.
In Bonhomie, Ohio, a stolen moment of passion at the end of World War II binds Cal Jenkins—a man unable to serve in the war—to Margaret Salt, a woman hiding her past. Cal’s wife, Becky, is a spiritual medium, while Margaret's husband, Felix, is presumed lost at sea. As a secret unfolds, the consequences of that encounter ripple through the next generation of both families, intertwining their fates across decades in a tale of love, grief, and redemption.
