Greenwich Reads Together Chooses The Book Thief
Tuesday, December 21, 2010
The Book Thief by Markus Zusak is the book that has been chosen by the community for Greenwich Reads Together.
Greenwich Reads Together is a community-wide reading experience which will engage all of Greenwich in exploring a single book. Several community organizations have formed a Steering Committee to lead this effort including Greenwich Arts Council, Greenwich Boys and Girls Club, Greenwich Historical Society, Greenwich Library and the YWCA of Greenwich. In Winter/Spring 2011, the whole community will explore a single book through discussions, programs and lectures.
After much deliberation, the Greenwich Reads Together Selection Committee selected The Book Thief from a list of more than 40 nominees. The Book Thief was selected for its high literary quality, reflection of universal issues, and capability of generating thought-provoking discussion and appeal to a diverse population.
