Join Downtown Springfield and the Springfield-Greene County Library District every second Thursday of the month at 6 p.m. for the Downtown Book Club.
December's read is "Yellowface" by R.F. Kuang.
BOOK DESCRIPTION: Authors June Hayward and Athena Liu were supposed to be twin rising stars. But Athena’s a literary darling. June Hayward is literally nobody. So when June witnesses Athena’s death in a freak accident, she acts on impulse: she steals Athena’s just-finished masterpiece, an experimental novel about the unsung contributions of Chinese laborers during World War I. With its totally immersive first-person voice, "Yellowface" grapples with questions of diversity, racism and cultural appropriation, as well as the terrifying alienation of social media.
