Lone Women by Victor LaValle

It's the library in hangout mode; a book club with a twist, held at Timothy O'Toole's in Lake Villa.

Get comfortable, meet new people and talk about books! You buy the drinks; appetizers are provided.

This month’s title is Lone Women by Victor LaValle.

Blue skies, empty land—and enough wide-open space to hide a horrifying secret. A woman with a past, a mysterious trunk, a town on the edge of nowhere, and an “absorbing, powerful” new vision of the American West.  Lone Women blends shimmering prose, an unforgettable cast of adventurers who find horror and sisterhood in a brutal landscape, and a portrait of early-twentieth-century America like you’ve never seen. And at its heart is the gripping story of a woman desperate to bury her past—or redeem it.

Copies of the print book will be available at the Circulation Desk.
