Join us for an engaging evening of conversation as we gather to discuss The Second Life of Mirielle West by Amanda Skenandore on Saturday, October 3 at 6:00 p.m!Based on the true history of Carville, Louisiana, America’s only leper colony, this compelling historical fiction novel follows Mirielle West, a glamorous 1920s Hollywood socialite married to a silent film star. When a routine doctor's visit leads to an unexpected leprosy diagnosis, her world is shattered as she is secretly sent hundreds of miles away to Carville under an assumed name. Forced to navigate isolation, stigma, and an uncertain future, Mirielle must find resilience, purpose, and community among an unlikely group of fellow residents. Whether you finished the book weeks ago or finished reading right before stepping through the door, all are welcome for a thoughtful and lively discussion!
