September Meeting: Diane Oliver - Neighbors and Other Stories

Recommended Stories:

• Neighbors
• The Closet on the Top Floor
• Frozen Voices

Tied for first in our poll for September, we're looking forward to reading this recently rediscovered collection!

For First-Timers: We recommend reading at least one story in the collection, but feel free to read as little or as much as you'd like! Discussion is open, informal, and covers the whole collection, but we try to focus on the recommended stories listed above.

About the collection:
A remarkable talent far ahead of her time, Diane Oliver died in 1966 at the age of 22, leaving behind these crisply told and often chilling tales that explore race and racism in 1950s and 60s America. In this first and only collection by a masterful storyteller finally taking her rightful place in the canon, Oliver’s insightful stories reverberate into the present day.
