Join ASCPL Librarians for an interactive Facebook Live book discussion of Barbara Kingsolver’s The Bean Trees.
This virtual book discussion is part of the Community Read, a shared reading experience where we’ve invited our entire community to come together to read the same novel. This year’s theme is “Where We Live.” Bring your own book questions or just join as the librarians discuss the themes and characters of The Bean Trees in this Facebook Live event.
The Bean Trees is the novel that launched Barbara Kingsolver's remarkable literary career. Taylor Greer leaves rural Kentucky to find a new life. She navigates the challenges of poverty, discrimination, and systematic inequality in a charming story about love and friendship, abandonment and belonging, and the discovery of surprising resources in seemingly empty places.
