During the Book Club hour, guests may park in any visitor or unmarked space in the parking garage at 568 Garden Ave. Handicapped parking is available in the circle drive in front of the library.
"The Things They Carried is more than 'another' book about Vietnam.... It is a master stroke of form and imagery.... The Things They Carried is about life, about men who [fight] and die, about buddies, and about a lost innocence that might be recaptured through the memory of stories. O'Brien tells us these stories because he must. He tells them as they have never been told before."
