Flatbush Library Book Club: Never Let Me Go
book club
book discussion
Join Flatbush Library's monthly book club for a chance to meet your neighbors and dive into some great books. We read a variety of nonfiction and contemporary fiction.
For March, we'll be reading Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro, an edge-of-your-seat mystery about what it means to be human. Hailsham seems like a pleasant English boarding school, far from the influences of the city. Its students are well tended and supported, trained in art and literature, and become just the sort of people the world wants them to be. But, curiously, they are taught nothing of the outside world and are allowed little contact with it. Within the grounds of Hailsham, Kathy grows from schoolgirl to young woman, but it's only when she and her friends Ruth and Tommy leave the safe grounds of the school (as they always knew they would) that they realize the full truth of what Hailsham is.
Register for updates and reminders about our book club!
Copies of the book are available to pick up at the library's front desk. All are welcome.
22 Linden Blvd. at Flatbush Ave.
