08/29/2023 3:00pm 08/29/2023 5:00pm Water by Jennifer Wilson Book Discussion Mostly some 100grannies are joining with CCI to read and discuss the novel Water by Jennifer Wilson. The number of participants precludes from having it someone's home. It may grow between now and August 29 but probably not more that 20. (Side note, if possible could you order the book? WATER is the fictional story of Freja Folsom, a reporter in Des Moines who wants nothing to do with the environmental story she’s been assigned. But a man who illegally dropped a well into the city’s aquifer leads Freja to the passionate showdown between farmers, government workers, worried citizens, and the sexy head of the Water Works utility. Suddenly, the poisoned water of Iowa seems like the story that might save Freja’s life — and revive the spirit of the state she loves before it gives up and becomes Mississippi. Okay, so maybe it’s not that fictional.thanks ) Iowa City Public Library Iowa City Public Library America/Chicago public
