Daytimers' Book Group

Daytimers' Book Group In-Person

Join us on Tuesday November 18th at 1:30pm, in Room 228 for the Daytimers’ Book Group discussion of Groundskeeping, by Lee Cole.

Description: ""In the run-up to the 2016 election, Owen Callahan, an aspiring writer, moves back to Kentucky to live with his Trump-supporting uncle and grandfather. Eager to clean up his act after wasting time and potential in his early twenties, he takes a job as a groundskeeper at a small local college, in exchange for which he is permitted to take a writing course. Here he meets Alma Hadžić, a writer in residence who seems to have everything that Owen lacks--a prestigious position, an Ivy League education, success as a writer. They begin a secret relationship, and as they grow closer, Alma--who comes from a liberal family of Bosnian immigrants--struggles to understand Owen's fraught relationship with family and home."

Copies of the book are available in regular print, large print, so stop by the library to pick up a physical copy.  It is also available through Overdrive / Libby as an eBook and an eAudio..
