Wednesday Night Book Discussion

Join us at the Gates Mills Branch Library for a discussion of *Anil's Ghost* by Michael Ondaatje. The book explores the territory where the personal and the political intersect at the fulcrum of civil war in Sri Lanka during the mid-1980s. More effective than a thriller, its chilling insights are augmented by the visceral emotional effects that masterful literature can provide. Ondaatje's novel satisfies one of the most exalted purposes of fiction: to illuminate the human condition through pity and terror. Call the branch library for more details (440-423-4808).
