Harnish Main Program Room

A book club for fans of popular fiction!

In April, we'll be discussing Virgil Wander by Leif Enger. 

After a car accident, Midwesterner Virgil Wander’s language and memory are affected.  With the help of fellow townspeople, he begins piecing together his personal history, as well as the background of his troubled hometown.

Stop by either library location to pick up a copy.  This title is also available in Large Type, eBook, eAudiobook and Audio CD formats.

AAPLD embraces inclusivity in its programs and services. To request accommodations, please email [info@aapld.org] or call (847) 458-6060 x143 at least 7 days in advance.
