Event Details
Book Club takes place at the Atwater Memorial Library on the 3rd Thursday, (in this case, 4th,) of every month at noon! If you would like to become a member, register for this event, and you will be added to the member's list for all future titles and meetings.
This month's title is, Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury.
"Guy Montag is a fireman. His job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities, the printed book, along with the houses in which they are hidden. Montag never questions the destruction and ruin his actions produce, returning each day to his bland life and wife, Mildred, who spends all day with her television “family.” But when he meets an eccentric young neighbor, Clarisse, who introduces him to a past where people didn’t live in fear and to a present where one sees the world through the ideas in books instead of the mindless chatter of television, Montag begins to question everything he has ever known."
