About this event:
'On a copper-rich tropical island shattered by war, where the teachers have fled with almost everyone else, only one white man chooses to stay behind: the eccentric Mr. Watts, object of much curiosity and scorn, who sweeps out the ruined schoolhouse and begins to read to the children each day from Charles Dickens's classic Great Expectations.' So begins Mister Pip by Lloyd Jones about the abiding strength that imagination, once ignited, can provide. Join in our book discussion on the fourth Tuesday of every month at 6:30 pm.
Copies for book discussion participants are available at the circulation desk.
