Narrative Nonfiction Book Club

Consider this your invitation to read and discuss narrative nonfiction with us! In the Narrative Nonfiction Book Club we will be reading across the genres of nonfiction, from history to adventure, memoir/biography, and beyond with books that read like a novel.

Join us on Saturday, June 7th at 11am in the Hermann room as we discuss our latest book pick, 2024 Pulitzer Prize Finalist, The Country of the Blind: A Memoir at the End of Sight by Andrew Leland.

"In a book that is part memoir, part historical and cultural investigation, the author, midway through his life with retinitis pigmentosa, explores the state of being that awaits him, not only the physical experience of blindness but also its language, politics and customs so he can not only survive this transition but grow from it."

Capacity: 20 of 20 spaces available.
