Join us as we share conversations about "Booth" by Karen Joy Fowler. The discussion starts at 6:30 pm and snacks are provided.
In 1822, a family moves into a hidden cabin northeast of Baltimore to farm, lay low, and raise ten kids over sixteen years. At the center is Junius Booth, a brilliant but unstable Shakespearean actor who rules the household. As the years pass and the country edges toward civil war, the Booths rise from obscurity to become a famous theatrical family. But behind the scenes, scandals, triumphs, and disasters take their toll, leaving John Wilkes Booth's siblings to face the weight of a dark and prophetic legacy.
