We READ, We TALK Hybrid Book Club – Registration

Register below for a copy of A Place of Thin Veil by Bob Rosebrough now through September 30th

“The veil between the material and spiritual worlds is thinner and more permeable in Gallup, New Mexico. It is a place that is disproportionately and simultaneously wonderful and terrible. A reservation border-town with a remarkably diverse citizenry, Gallup started out as a railroading and coal mining community with an alcohol-soaked, violent history. It is a place of constant struggle where the forces of good and evil are joined in combat and where each resident faces their own inner struggles. This book isn’t just for Gallupians or New Mexicans; it is both a memoir and history about real people facing Goliath struggles.” 

Zoom discussions will be held in October or in person at the Main Library with the author in attendance.
