Nora Branch -
Join us for a discussion of "Deacon King Kong," by James McBride.
Adults are invited to join us in this monthly book discussion. Deacon King Kong by James McBride is available as a print book, a downloadable audiobook, an audiobook CD, a downloadable ebook, and as a large print book in The Library's collection.
"In September 1969, a fumbling, cranky old church deacon known as Sportcoat shuffles into the courtyard of the Cause Houses housing project in south Brooklyn, pulls a .45 from his pocket, and in front of everybody shoots the project's drug dealer at point-blank range. The reasons for this desperate burst of violence and the consequences that spring from it lie at the heart of Deacon King Kong, James McBride's funny, moving novel and his first since his National Book Award-winning The Good Lord Bird."
Contact Theresa Coleman or Carri Genovese at the Nora branch for questions about this monthly book discussion group.

About the branch
A new library for the rapidly-expanding area of suburban Washington Township was made possible by the donation of a 2.56 acre lot from Mr. and Mrs. Harrison Eiteljorg in 1968. The Nora Branch opened in 1971 on North Guilford Avenue and was expanded to 18,500-square-feet in 1990.
