June Staff Picks


Cory's Pick
Population:485
Michael Perry
F 589 .N42 P47 2002
Population: 485 is a thoughtful, reverent look at the knitted garment that is a small town. Through the lens of his role in the volunteer fire department, Michael Perry takes us through the characters and events that form a community. Carefully written and both solemn and funny, the book is a reminder that we are not islands; whether actively or passively, we shape the lives of our neighbors.
