Join us at Soulful Pages Book Club as we read and discuss The Davenports by Krystal Marquis. Set in the early 20th century, this captivating novel follows the lives of the wealthy Davenport family, whose lives are filled with love, ambition, and societal expectations. As each family member navigates their own path, the story explores themes of race, class, and the pursuit of personal happiness against the backdrop of historical change. With rich characters and a compelling narrative, The Davenports offers a fascinating glimpse into the complexities of family dynamics and social standing.
We’ll have an open discussion of the book, diving into its themes, characters, and the historical context that shapes the story. It’s a great opportunity to share your thoughts and hear from fellow readers.
We look forward to seeing you there!

About the branch
As the hub of the Indianapolis Public Library system, Central Library showcases renowned architecture and services. The original 1917 building, designed by Paul Cret and constructed of Indiana limestone in the Greek Doric style, was considered one of the most outstanding secular buildings in the U.S. Its six-story glass and steel-framed addition, designed by Evans Woollen, opened in 2007.
