SUMMARY:Third Thursday Book Discussion - Ordinary Grace by William Kent Krueger
DESCRIPTION:“That was it. That was all of it. A grace so ordinary there was no reason at all to remember it. Yet I have never across the forty years since it was spoken forgotten a single word.” \nNew Bremen\, Minnesota\, 1961. The Twins were playing their debut season\, ice-cold root beers were selling out at the soda counter of Halderson’s Drugstore\, and Hot Stuff comic books were a mainstay on every barbershop magazine rack. It was a time of innocence and hope for a country with a new\, young president. But for thirteen-year-old Frank Drum it was a grim summer in which death visited frequently and assumed many forms. Accident. Nature. Suicide. Murder. \nFrank begins the season preoccupied with the concerns of any teenage boy\, but when tragedy unexpectedly strikes his family—which includes his Methodist minister father; his passionate\, artistic mother; Juilliard-bound older sister; and wise-beyond-his-years kid brother—he finds himself thrust into an adult world full of secrets\, lies\, adultery\, and betrayal\, suddenly called upon to demonstrate a maturity and gumption beyond his years. \nTold from Frank’s perspective forty years after that fateful summer\, Ordinary Grace is a brilliantly moving account of a boy standing at the door of his young manhood\, trying to understand a world that seems to be falling apart around him. It is an unforgettable novel about discovering the terrible price of wisdom and the enduring grace of God. \nThird Thursday is an informal group\, open to all\, no sign up necessary. Reserve your book at the adult circulation desk or online.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Book Discussion - The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson
DESCRIPTION:Publishers Weekly Reviews \nNot long after Jack the Ripper haunted the ill-lit streets of 1888 London\, H.H. Holmes (born Herman Webster Mudgett) dispatched somewhere between 27 and 200 people\, mostly single young women\, in the churning new metropolis of Chicago; many of the murders occurred during (and exploited) the city’s finest moment\, the World’s Fair of 1893. Larson’s breathtaking new history is a novelistic yet wholly factual account of the fair and the mass murderer who lurked within it. Bestselling author Larson (Isaac’s Storm) strikes a fine balance between the planning and execution of the vast fair and Holmes’s relentless\, ghastly activities. The passages about Holmes are compelling and aptly claustrophobic; readers will be glad for the frequent escapes to the relative sanity of Holmes’s co-star\, architect and fair overseer Daniel Hudson Burnham\, who managed the thousands of workers and engineers who pulled the sprawling fair together 0n an astonishingly tight two-year schedule. A natural charlatan\, Holmes exploited the inability of authorities to coordinate\, creating a small commercial empire entirely on unpaid debts and constructing a personal cadaver-disposal system. This is\, in effect\, the nonfiction Alienist\, or a sort of companion\, which might be called Homicide\, to Emile Durkheim’s Suicide. However\, rather than anomie\, Larson is most interested in industriousness and the new opportunities for mayhem afforded by the advent of widespread public anonymity. This book is everything popular history should be\, meticulously recreating a rich\, pre-automobile America on the cusp of modernity\, in which the sale of “articulated” corpses was a semi-respectable trade and serial killers could go well-nigh unnoticed. 6 b&w photos\, 1 map. (Feb.) Forecast: With this book\, Larson builds on the success of Isaac’s Storm. Anyone with an interest in American history-in particular fans of Stephen Ambrose and David McCullough-should find much to engross them here.
