Event description

The Lit for Fun book group has been meeting since 1980! We read all kinds of fiction and non-fiction and have lively and thought-provoking discussions.

On April 9 we'll be reading The Tilted World by Tom Franklin and Beth Ann Fennelly. In 1927, as the Mississippi River threatens to burst its banks and engulf all in its path, two federal revenue agents investigate the disappearance of two fellow agents on the trail of a local bootlegger.

This is an extraordinary tale of murder and moonshine, sandbagging and saboteurs, and a man and woman who find unexpected love. Written by an acclaimed author and an award-winning poet, The Tilted World is that rarest of creations, a story of seemingly ordinary people who find hope and deliverance where they least expect it -- in each other.

Registration is required to receive a reminder email with the Zoom link 24 hours before the event begins. If you register less than 24 hours before the event, your confirmation email will have the Zoom link.
