Editor's Pick
Hand-picked by our editors
We welcome you to Albany Library’s monthly book club discussion. The club meets every third Sunday to discuss select reading materials. Materials selected for reading and discussion are to be determined by the whole club. The group is open to adults as well as teens, and the number of participants is 12. Please consider joining us for this event.
Pick of the Month:
Glory by NoViolet Bulawayo
Inspired by the unexpected fall by coup, in November 2017, of Robert Mugabe--Zimbabwe's president who took office in 1980 and...never left--Bulawayo's bold, vividly imagined novel shows a country imploding, narrated by a chorus of animal voices who unveil the ruthlessness and cold strategy required to uphold the illusion of absolute power, and to overthrow it completely.
Seating: First Come Serve Basis.
Cost: All AC Library events are free.
Other: Light refreshments served at the event.
