Turning Pages: “Small Things Like These” by Claire Keegan (WL)

January 21 @ 6:30 pm

Free

This month’s title is Small Things Like These by Claire Keegan.

Keegan confronts the nature of corruption in a venerated institution in this Booker Prize-nominated short novel. On a cold day just before Christmas 1985, Bill Furlong sees something he shouldn’t while delivering coal to the local convent. Faced with a choice between making it public and risking his business, or keeping quiet to preserve his family and place in town, Bill must revisit his own past and make a terrible decision.

Explore classic and contemporary fiction and nonfiction from around the world. This group will sample critically acclaimed and prize-winning titles with open and inclusive discussion. Turning Pages meets the third Tuesday of every month.
