Be a part of the library’s monthly book club discussion group for adults at your library. For this month, the featured selection is “James” by Percival Everett. This book offers a bold and darkly funny reimagining of “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn,” told from the enslaved Jim’s perspective. As Jim flees a looming sale that would tear him from his family, he and Huck embark on a perilous journey down the Mississippi River – one that reframes Jim’s character with striking depth, agency, and wit, transforming a classic tale into a powerful meditation on freedom and humanity. Come out and be ready to discuss this title with other avid readers in the community.
