Duncan Public Library begins ‘Let’s Talk About it Oklahoma,’ book discussion series

DUNCAN, Okla. (KSWO) – The Duncan Public Library kicked off its community-wide book club on Thursday.

The Library started its “Let’s Talk About It Oklahoma” program, a book discussion series funded through various donors and an Oklahoma Humanities Grant.

Community members and area scholars came together tonight to discuss “The Code of the Woosters,” a novel about people who run into trouble with local authorities.

“It’s definitely something to come see.,” said Jessica Allmon, Outreach Coordinator for the library. “I know that sometimes people feel like ‘Oh well, I didn’t finish the book,’ or ‘I didn’t really like it, I don’t want to talk about a book I didn’t like,’ but it is a good opportunity to meet other people and talk about some fun things even if you haven’t finished the book, so don’t ever let that stop you.”

The discussion group will meet on the second Thursday of each month.

In February, they’ll be meeting to discuss “The Burglar Who Traded Ted Williams,” by Lawrence Block.

Anyone wanting to join is encouraged to check out the book from the library, or the audiobook from its listening app.
