Events › Adult Book Discussion: James by Percival Everett

"From Percival Everett comes James, a retelling of The Adventures of Huckelberry Finn, both harrowing and ferociously funny, told from the enslaved Jim's point of view. When Jim overhears that he is about to be sold to a man in New Orleans, separated from his wife and daughter forever, he decides to hide on a nearby island to formulate a plan. James is destined to be a major publishing event and a cornerstone of twenty-first century American literature."
