Book group reads 'Cane River'

The Afternoon Book Discussion at the Jamestown library continues on Feb. 13, the second Tuesday of the month from 1 to 2 p.m. with "Cane River" by Lalita Tademy.

"Cane River" was an Oprah's Book Club Selection. The author researched the genealogy of her own family to create this novel about four generations of African- American women as they faced life with courage and fortitude in the deep South of Louisiana.

This book may be obtained through the Jamestown library by placing holds on one of the many copies in the state available through the Cooperating Libraries Automated Network (CLAN). The meetings are free and open to the public and new members are encouraged to join. For more information, call the library at 423- 7280.
