Talk About Literature in Kansas

Once again, our Friends of the Library are teaming with the Kansas Humanities Council to bring a challenging book discussion series to Independence. Today's Mysteries is the title and mysteries are what it is about.

The three-part series opens February 26 at 7 PM in the library meeting room where Sandra Calvin Hastings from the Johnson County Community College will present and lead a discussion of Reflex by the ever-popular Dick Francis.

The second discussion will take place on March 26 at 7 PM. Phillip D. Thomas will lead a discussion of Talking God by Tony Hillerman. Thomas comes from Wichita State University.

Lastly, Erin Pouppirt from Leawood, will lead a discussion of Where Echos Live by Marcia Muller on April 23 at 7 PM.


This series usually attracts a group with a lively interest in discussing a variety of takes on the viewpoints presented. Julie Hildebrand is the Library's Grant Manager for this series. Admittance is free and the discussions are open to the public.
