Narrated by a 70-year-old man and a 14-year-old girl, Nicole Krauss’ novel is a literary labyrinth that stirs up heavy emotions of loneliness, loss, and love. These themes are also present in the cluttered, uninhibited rooms of Kai Althoff’s installation in the exhibition Heart of Darkness. Prep for the book club discussion during a free gallery tour at 6 pm. Books are available in the Walker Shop and at the Minneapolis Public Library.

For discussion questions and author interviews, visit blogs.walkerart.org/ecp. Presented in partnership with the Friends of the Minneapolis Public Library.

Target Free Thursday Nights is sponsored by Target.
