This month, the meeting will be held on Thursday, August 27 at 6:00 pm.  A link will be sent to all participants early in the day to access the meeting.  We will be discussing Nickel Boys by Colson Whitehead.

The Nickel Boys is a 2019 novel by American novelist Colson Whitehead. It was based on the real story of the Dozier School, a reform school in Florida that operated for 111 years and had its history exposed by a university’s investigation. It was named one of TIME’S best books of the decade.  It is set in Florida and New York City.
