August is a non-fiction month for the Arroyo Book Club. The book we will be reading is Knife by Salman Rushdie. The catalog describes the book as:
"...a searing, deeply personal account of enduring--and surviving--an attempt on his life thirty years after the fatwa that was ordered against him. Speaking out for the first time, and in unforgettable detail, about the traumatic events of August 12, 2022, Salman Rushdie answers violence with art, and reminds us of the power of words to make sense of the unthinkable."
Stop by the branch to pick up a copy to read, while they last. You will find them in the usual location, just ask if you don’t know where that is.
We will come together to discuss the book on Saturday, August 23 at 3 p.m. It will be a hybrid meeting so you have the option of attending in person or via Zoom. If you’d like to join us via Zoom let us know at ayosco@lapl.org so we can get the link to you
