Program Description

Event Details

Join us for The Literary Lens!  A new book/film club where we'll watch a film one month and then discuss the book the following month.  We'll focus on the differences and similarities between the two mediums, and also which version we think is better! This month's movie is The Lovely Bones. After being brutally murdered, 14-year-old Susie Salmon (Saoirse Ronan) watches from heaven over her grief-stricken family (Mark Wahlberg, Rachel Weisz) -- and her killer (Stanley Tucci). As she observes their daily lives, she must balance her thirst for revenge with her desire for her family to heal.
