Book Club

Join the Lenox Library’s book club on Tuesday, October 7, 2025 for a discussion of 1984 by George Orwell. This month, our featured title has been chosen to coincide with the Banned Books Week 2025 theme, “Censorship Is So 1984. Read for Your Rights.” With the escalation in attempts to ban books in libraries, schools, and bookstores around the country, George Orwell’s cautionary tale 1984 serves a prescient warning about the dangers of censorship. This year’s theme reminds us that the right to read belongs to all of us, that censorship has no place in contemporary society, and that we must defend our rights. In order to facilitate discussion in smaller groups, book club sessions will take place at the following times: 11:00 a.m. 1:00 p.m. 3:00 p.m. Participants are asked to select one session that is most convenient for them to attend on a regular basis. For questions about book club, please email [email protected]. The Lenox Library book club generally meets on the first Tuesday of the month.
