ABOUT THE EVENT
Books on Tap, Phoenixville Public Library’s book discussion group for adults in their 20s and 30s, will meet Tuesday, October 29, 7:00 PM, at The Great American Pub, 149 Bridge Street, Phoenixville. The group will discuss Elizabeth Kostova’s bestselling novel, The Historian.
Late one night, exploring her father’s library, a young woman finds an ancient book and a cache of yellowing letters. The letters are all addressed to “My dear and unfortunate successor,” and they plunge her into a world she never dreamed of, a labyrinth where the secrets of her father’s past and her mother’s mysterious fate connect to an inconceivable evil hidden in the depths of history. The letters provide links to one of the darkest powers that humanity has ever known and to a centuries-long quest to find the source of that darkness and wipe it out. It is a quest for the truth about Vlad the Impaler, the medieval ruler whose barbarous reign formed the basis of the legend of Dracula.
This event is free and open to the public. Food and beverages will be available for purchase. No registration required. For more information, email Faith Donaher at fdonaher@gmail.com.
