Event Details
Join Library Trustee Gemma Tansey for the February online book discussion of The Pull of the Stars by Emma Donoghue.
In an Ireland doubly ravaged by war and disease, Nurse Julia Power works at an understaffed hospital in the city center, where expectant mothers who have come down with the terrible new Flu are quarantined together. Into Julia's regimented world step two outsiders -- Doctor Kathleen Lynn, a rumored Rebel on the run from the police , and a young volunteer helper, Bridie Sweeney.
Physical copies of the book are available at the Main and West End branches. Digital copies can be checked out here!
