Breakfast With A Book

   The library’s newest book discussion group is now forming and looking for people who enjoy reading a variety of good books in both fiction and nonfiction.  The group will meet every five weeks on Saturday beginning April 25 at 9:30a.m. for breakfast and book discussion.  The first book to be read and discussed will be On the Road by Jack Kerouac.  Kerouac’s classic novel of freedom and longing defined what it meant to be “Beat” and has inspired every generation since its initial publication more than forty years ago. 

   In addition to Kerouac other authors to be read include Ernest Hemingway; Hunter Thompson; Kurt Vonnegut; James Baldwin; Erskine Caldwell; Malcolm Gladwell; Stephen King and many more.

   For more information about this new group please call the library at 352-2665 x107 and talk with Mark or feel free to email mark@pspl.org
