Join us October
The Foundation Sci Fi & Fantasy Book Group
Monthly theme: Banned in the USA
The books are science fiction, but the banning is very much the stuff of real life. Choose from Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, The Amulet Of Samarkand by Jonathan Stroud, Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, and The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. Remember: The best way to get people to read something is by banning it!
Celebrate Banned Books Week with the Carpe Librum Book Club as we discuss Toni Morrison's The Bluest Eye. According to the American Library Association, Morrison's 1970 debut was the third most challenged book of 2022, with 73 different challenges being brought against it in schools and libraries around the country. Join us for a discussion about this classic and other banned books at our monthly meeting. Copies of the book will be available for check-out at the circulation desk beginning September 1st.
The Great Beginnings Book Club will feature The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison as part of Banned Books Con.
