About this event
Join our Graphic Novel Book Club! We'll be meeting AT DRIFTER COFFEE on Tuesday, AUGUST 19 at 6:30 pm to discuss I Was Their American Dream by Malaka Gharib.
This book club, for ages 18+, will now be hosted at Drifter Coffee at 770 Woodward Hts. This is an after-hours event for Drifter, and their beverage bar will be open for Book Club attendees, but REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED.
More about the book: The daughter of parents with unfulfilled dreams themselves, Malaka navigated her childhood chasing her parents' ideals, learning to code-switch between her family's Filipino and Egyptian customs, adapting to white culture to fit in, crushing on skater boys, and trying to understand the tension between holding onto cultural values and trying to be an all-American kid.
You can place a hold online but we'll also have some copies available at the circulation desk.
