For the month of March, the Hawaii State Library Book Group will discuss Close Range: Wyoming Stories by Annie Proulx.

From the Pulitzer Prize winning author of The Shipping News, Close Range: Wyoming Stories is the celebrated 1999 collection that includes Brokeback Mountain, the basis for the 2005 Ang Lee film starring Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal. Annie Proulx’s masterful language and fierce love of Wyoming are on full display in these breathtaking tales of loneliness, quick violence, and love.

The HSL Book Group meets on the third Thursday of each month at 6:30 p.m. in the Language, Literature, and History Section. Walk-ins welcome. No registration necessary. Inquires about the HSL Book Group can be directed to hslbookgroup@gmail.com or (808) 586-3499.

If you need an auxiliary aid/service or other accommodation due to a disability, please contact the library at least 7 days prior to the program date. We will make every attempt to fulfill all requests for accommodations. All programs are subject to change. For a list of upcoming library events, visit test-library.ehawaii.gov/events.
