The Stephentown Library Book Discussion Group will read The Help by Kathryn Stockett for their meeting on Thursday, February 3. This “Upstairs, Downstairs” of 1962 Jackson, Mississippi, is an illuminating and compassionate story. Recent grad Skeeter aspires to be a journalist and finds her subject in the lives of the black maids working for her friends and family. The clandestine writing project puts them all at risk.
Meetings are held in the Community Room at the Stephentown Memorial Library, Main Street, Stephentown, from noon to 1 pm. Bring a lunch if you like. Copies of the book are available at the Library desk. New readers are always welcome. For more information, call 518-733-5750.
