About this event
Preakness Room. The Page Turners Book Group meets to discuss literary and popular fiction novels. All meetings are hybrid - in library and on Zoom. Copies of the book available at the reference desk and on Overdrive/Libby. For the October meeting the group is reading: Long Island Compromise by Taffy Brodesser-Akner In 1980, a wealthy businessman named Carl Fletcher is kidnapped from his driveway, brutalized, and held for ransom. He is returned to his wife and kids less than a week later, only slightly the worse, and the family moves on with their lives, resuming their prized places in the saga of the American dream, comforted in the realization that though their money may have been what endangered them, it is also what assured them their safety. But now, nearly forty years later, it’s clear that perhaps nobody ever got over anything, after all.
