About this event
October's hybrid meeting—IN PERSON at the **Boulder Library Main Branch second floor Flatirons Meeting Room** & ONLINE (see link when you register)—is *Angel Down* by Daniel Kraus (USA, 2025) on Sunday starting at 2:30 pm (for 2 hours). Daniel Kraus's 2025 Pulitzer Prize–winning novel, Angel Down, features a motley crew of American doughboys in the Belgian trenches of WWI who encounter an actual fallen angel trapped in the barbed wire of No Man's Land, who causes them to reveal their true selves as each decides how they will use this angel's supernatural powers, especially our protagonist, Pvt. Cyril Bagger, a cynical con man and failed draft dodger, all of which the author relates to us in a single sentence. We ask that all attendees read the entire book in advance of the meeting.
