Don't forget!
Join librarians and readers from throughout the state for a lively discussion of the 2008 One Book New Jersey Adult Selection, Philip Roth's The Plot Against America. Log in at www.bccls.org/OBNJ, or follow the link from www.bccls.org, at 7:00 p.m. No registration is necessary, and you can log in/out any time between 7:00 and 8:00 p.m.
Philip Roth, considered by many to be one of America's greatest contemporary novelists, creates this disturbing tale of "what if?" What if Charles Lindberg, national hero, described as a "rabid isolationist, Nazi sympathizer and crypto-fascist" was elected president in the 1940 election instead of FDR? This alternative history novel is told from the semi-autobiographical perspective of seven-year-old Philip, growing up with his family in the predominantly Jewish Weequahic section of Newark.
If you can't make this discussion, try to join us at 7:00 p.m. on Monday, October 20 at the same place! Transcripts of both discussions will be posted at www.bccls.org/OBNJ.

It is good to have an end to journey toward, but it is the journey that matters, in the end. [Ursula K. LeGuin] |
