Thank you for this recommendation and for mentioning Jeffrey Toobin’s appearance at Open VISIONS Forum in September.
I am the publicist for OVF at Fairfield U and would love to get a “book club” of sorts reading “The Nine.” Is this something that is done at the library or through the library email list? Do you know whom I might talk with about this as a possibility?
I would be very grateful for your thoughts on this.
Thank you,
