Mudbound coverJoin us for our discussion of Mudbound by Hillary Jordan. Everyone is welcome!

Book Description: "In 1946, Laura McAllan, a college-educated Memphis schoolteacher, becomes a reluctant farmer's wife when her husband, Henry, buys a farm on the Mississippi Delta, a farm she aptly nicknames Mudbound. Jordan's poignant and moving debut novel takes on social injustice in the postwar Mississippi Delta. Here, two families, the landowning McAllans and their black sharecroppers, the Jacksons, struggle with the mores of the Jim Crow South."

The Bluffton Book Club meets the third Wednesday of every month at 1:00 p.m. in the small conference room at the Bluffton Branch Library. Click Here for the full book club schedule.
