We are looking forward to this virtual event!

📚 This month’s PBS Books Readers Club selection is James by the renowned Professor Percival Everett, an instant New York Times bestseller that’s already receiving rave reviews. This groundbreaking novel reimagines Jim, the enslaved character from Twain’s Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, offering a compelling and richly detailed perspective on his untold story. With its sharp wit and deep insights on race and freedom, James is a transformative read that challenges and enriches our understanding of American literature.

Everett explains, “I didn’t write this as a counterpoint to Twain’s work. Twain focused on the story of a young white boy, while I’m exploring the life of a fully realized Black man with a family and a history.”

Join us for a special virtual event on July 31 at 8 PM ET, where Professor Percival Everett will delve into the inspiration and impact behind this extraordinary novel. Don’t miss this chance to hear from one of today’s most influential authors! 📖
