"Two girls who grow up to become women. Two friends who become something worse than enemies. In this brilliantly imagined novel, Toni Morrison tells the story of Nel Wright and Sula Peace, who meet as children in the small town of Medallion, Ohio. Their devotion is fierce enough to withstand bullies and the burden of a dreadful secret. It endures even after Nel has grown up to be a pillar of the black community and Sula has become a pariah. But their friendship ends in an unforgivable betrayal--or does it end? Terrifying, comic, ribald and tragic, Sula" is a work that overflows with life," From back cover. 

If you don't feel like you ever have enough time to finish a book, try a novella or short story for this lunchtime discussion. Copies of the selected titles will be available to pick up at the Adult Information Desk a month before each event.

Librarian Rachael will be cooking a light lunch on the library's Charlie Cart (a mobile-cooking unit) for you! If you have dietary restrictions or allergies, please indicate when registering. 


 

Copies of these books will be available several weeks before at the Adult Information Desk! If you need an audio or electronic version, checkout our Digital Library for availability.
