Events › Ironwood Evening Book Club: A Gentleman in Moscow

Do you love to read and talk about books? Join a small group of other readers for this one-hour, in-person conversation facilitated by a librarian, at the Ironwood Library.

In August, we will be reading A Gentleman in Moscow, by Amor Towles. "In 1922, Count Alexander Rostov is deemed an unrepentant aristocrat by a Bolshevik tribunal, and is sentenced to house arrest in the Metropol, a grand hotel across the street from the Kremlin. Rostov, an indomitable man of erudition and wit, has never worked a day in his life, and must now live in an attic room while some of the most tumultuous decades in Russian history are unfolding outside the hotel's doors. Unexpectedly, his reduced circumstances provide him entry into a much larger world of emotional discovery."
