A BOOK AND A MOVIE: SUMMER DOINGS @ THE WOPL

WOPL LogoBook Discussion Group
WHEN: Monday, June 6, at 1:30 PM
WHERE:
West Orange Public Library, 46 Mt. Pleasant Ave., West Orange

Librarian Debra Sarr will lead this month's discussion of The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. First published in 1925, The Great Gatsby, a classic of twentieth-century literature, provides a portrait of Jazz Age America. Through the eyes of Gatsby's next-door-neighbor, Nick Carraway, the book tells a story of love, power, greed and the promise of new beginnings. If you haven't read The Great Gatsby since your school days, now is the perfect time to re-vist this great American novel.

The Great Gatsby is available at the library in several formats: print, CD audiobook or downloadable ebook. The Library also has a DVD of the movie version starring Robert Redford and Mia Farrow. All are available free of charge to WO Library cardholders.
