August's book discussion "Maroons: Book 2" by Adrienne Maree Brown

Details

We will be reading Maroons, the second installment to Adrienne Maree Brown's Grievers triology for August!

As always, no fee during the summer, we meet at Griffin Gardens, and shop local if you can.

Synopsis:
A tale of survival, of moving beyond seemingly insurmountable devastation toward, if not hope itself, then the road to hope.
In the second installment of the Grievers trilogy, adrienne maree brown brings to bear her background as an activist rooted in Detroit. The pandemic of Syndrome H-8 continues to ravage the city of Detroit and everyone in Dune’s life. In Maroons, she must learn what community and connection mean in the lonely wake of a fatal virus. Emerging from grief to follow a subtle path of small pleasures through an abandoned urban landscape, she begins finding other unlikely survivors with little in common but the will to live. Together they begin to piece together the puzzle of their survival, and that of the city itself.
