Program Description

Event Details

Join us for a facilitated discussion of a work of popular fiction. Copies of the month's title are available at the downtown Vancouver Community Library for sign-out at the Accounts Desk.

For October we will read: The Alchemist, by Paulo Coelho.

The Alchemist has become a modern classic, selling millions of copies around the world and transforming the lives of countless readers across generations. Paulo Coelho's masterpiece tells the mystical story of Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who yearns to travel in search of a worldly treasure. His quest will lead him to riches far different--and far more satisfying--than he ever imagined. Santiago's journey teaches us about the essential wisdom of listening to our hearts, of recognizing opportunity and learning to read the omens strewn along life's path, and, most importantly, to follow our dreams

We will meet in person in the Klickitat Room. We are limiting the size of this group to 20 people, so please let us know if you plan to attend by either registering on this page, or signing out a copy of the discussion book at the Accounts Desk.
