Weston Library Offers Bimonthly Book Group

Join us on June 17 to discuss The Narrow Road to the Deep North by Richard Flanagan.

The Weston Public Library offers a bimonthly book group, where we discuss selected readings. This month our second book is The Narrow Road to the Deep North by Richard Flanagan. The group will meet June 17 at 7:30 pm in the library.

Synopsis: In The Narrow Road to the Deep North, Richard Flanagan displays the gifts that have made him one of the most acclaimed writers of contemporary fiction. Moving deftly from a Japanese POW camp to present-day Australia, from the experiences of Dorrigo Evans and his fellow prisoners to that of the Japanese guards, this savagely beautiful novel tells a story of the many forms of love and death, of war and truth, as one man comes of age, prospers, only to discover all that he has lost.
