Events › Adult Fiction Book Discussion: True Grit

Join us at the Harold Washington Library Center on the third Saturday of each month from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. for a fiction book discussion for adults.

On Saturday, January 17, we'll discuss the novel, True Grit by Charles Portis.

“Mattie Ross is determined to avenge her father's blood by capturing Tom Chaney, the man who shot and killed him. Just fourteen, she enlists the help of Rooster Cogburn, a one-eyed, trigger-happy U.S. Marshal with an affinity for drinking, and hardened Texas Ranger LaBoeuf to track the fleeing Chaney. Despite their differences, their ruthless determination leads them on a perilous adventure that can only have one outcome: retribution.”

Copies of this month's selection will be available prior to the event at the 7th floor Literature and Language reference desk.
