Patterson Pages: Adult Book Discussion Group
Join us for a lively discussion of a variety of titles, fiction and non-fiction.
This month we are reading and discussing Horse by Geraldine Brooks. (2022)
Synopsis: A discarded painting in a junk pile, a skeleton in an attic, and the greatest racehorse in American history: from these strands, a Pulitzer Prize winner braids a sweeping story of spirit, obsession, and injustice across American history Kentucky, 1850. Jarrett, an enslaved groom, and a bay foal forge a bond of understanding that will carry the horse to record-setting victories across the South. Based on the remarkable true story of the record-breaking thoroughbred, Lexington, who became America's greatest stud sire, Horse is a gripping, multi-layered reckoning with the legacy of enslavement and racism in America. 401 p.
Copies of this title are available @ your library.
