Event Details

Pushing the Limits - this science discussion meets book discussion session will focus on memories and what they mean to a person's current life.  The featured novel is Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel.  An audacious, darkly glittering novel set in the eerie days of civilization’s collapse, Station Eleven tells the spellbinding story of a Hollywood star, his would-be savior, and a nomadic group of actors roaming the scattered outposts of the Great Lakes region, risking everything for art and humanity. A novel of art, memory, and ambition, Station Eleven tells a story about the relationships that sustain us, the ephemeral nature of fame, and the beauty of the world as we know it. A limited number of free copies are available at the circulation desk.
