Join the Southwest Book Club to discuss this month's selection, Small Great Things by Jodi Picoult. Hesitating to treat the newborn of a white supremacist couple who has demanded that a white nurse assist them, a black nurse is placed on trial in the tragic aftermath after the baby suffers a cardiac crisis. The legal case raises painful questions and prompts everyone involved to consider their own views on racism and prejudice.
Anyone age 18 or older is welcome to attend. The book club meets monthly at the Southwest Branch Library. No registration needed. For more information, please call 407.835.7323 or email southwest@ocls.info

Serving the Dr. Phillips and Metrowest communities, Southwest is near International Drive and the attractions. Southwest is a popular place for local adults, children, students and tourists.
