Novel discussion at library Saturday

 

September 12, 2018



The Marcus P. Beebe Memorial Library will be hosting Kiera Ball on Saturday September 15, 2018 at 10 a.m. at the Library.

Kiera will discuss the book, "What is the What” by Dave Eggers with the Marcus P. Beebe Book Club and those who took part in the Summer reading challenge.

The epic novel is based on the life of Valentino Achak Deng. Valentino and thousands of other children were forced to leave their villages in Sudan to find freedom. They crossed the desert through three countries pursued by militants, government bombers and wild animals. When Valentino finally gets resettled in the United States, he finds a life full of promise, but also heartache and a myriad of new challenges.

The public is invited to attend the book discussion and enjoy coffee and donuts. This book discussion is sponsored in part by the South Dakota Humanities Council and the Marcus P. Beebe Memorial Library.
