An alert for tomorrow, January 13, in Parry, IA:
Explore literary classics from a variety of authors with our Quarterly Classics Book Club. Join the club in January as they discuss Charlotte Brontë’s best-known novel, "Jane Eyre." This classic focuses on a strong, female protagonist through an intimate, engaging first-person narrative.
The Quarterly Classics Book Club will meet on a new day and time beginning in 2025. The first meeting is from 1-2:30 p.m. on Monday, Jan. 13 at the Carnegie Library Museum. Books may be purchased in advance for a small fee from the library or borrowed with your Perry Public Library card. For more information, go to www.perry.lib.ia.us, visit the library, or call 515-465-3569. (Des Moines Register)
