Book Club: Somewhere in Time historical fiction

Sunday, 8/28/2022
3:30 - 4:30

If you enjoy some history in your fiction, spend an hour hashing out the details of—and the history behind—this month’s novel, David Treuer’s Prudence. While Frankie Washburn is visiting and parting with his Minnesota family & friends before joining the war effort in 1942, a German POW escapes and things get complicated.


Read, discuss ideas and connect through the many book clubs hosted by SFPL.

Gather, share knowledge and celebrate our unique identities at the queerest library ever. 

For more resources, the James C. Hormel LGBTQIA Center is the gateway to the Library’s broader collections documenting lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, intersex and asexual history and culture, with a special emphasis on the San Francisco Bay Area.

Connect to engaging discussions and performances related to Indigenous Peoples.

Join the Library's celebration honoring the voices of Indigenous and native peoples with programs and workshops, book recommendations and more. 


This program is sponsored by Friends of the San Francisco Public Library.
