Baldwin Park Library

Meeting Room

Join the Adult Book Club for a discussion of our latest selection 'Weather' by Jenny Offill. For Adults

Lizzie Benson is a librarian at a New York City university who stresses over her dog, husband, son, needy library patrons, religious mom and ex-addict brother.  Her bandwidth is stretched further when Sylvia, her former mentor and a successful podcaster, hires Lizzie to answer letters written by the doomsday preppers who listen to her podcast, Hell and High Water.  Oh, the 2016 election is taking place too.  Offill engagingly portrays a woman mauled by the mundane and monumental. 

If you would like a copy of the book, please drop by Baldwin Park Library to pick up a copy or check the catalog for a digital copy.

Attendance is limited, and advance registration is required. Please register every individual in your party. This will be used to save your spots in the program. We cannot guarantee availability for any unregistered attendees.
