LBNY Bestseller Book Club: On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous

We are honoring Pride Month with a discussion of Ocean Vuong's 2019 novel and instant New York Times bestseller, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous. Copies are available at the front desk of the Library or you can download an ebook or audiobook with your library card. 

Written in the form of a letter to his illiterate mother, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous is the story of Little Dog, a young Vietnamese boy and his mother trying to survive in America after escaping tragedy in Vietnam. A brutally honest exploration of race, class, and masculinity, Entertainment Weekly says, "This book is no ordinary novel. This thing feels alive."
