Rodin’s Debutante: a novel by Ward Just

By

Monday, April 9 through Friday, May 4, 2012. Read by Karl Schmidt.

A coming of age story in mid 20th century Chicago. As Booklist says: “…in this mordantly funny yet profoundly mysterious novel, Just asks what divides and what unites us. What should be kept secret? Which teaches us more, failure or success? And of what value is beauty?”
