Book Mixer: Citizen Vince

Jan 30 2010 8:00 pm

Discuss Edgar-Award-winning Citizen Vince by Jess Walter with our Book Mixer group.

We meet every other month, usually the last Saturday at 8:00pm.
Our book choices tend to be a little edgier than the traditional book
club fare, and our discussions are focused yet fun. After about an hour
talking about the book, most of us head to a bar or restaurant to
socialize. This helps us spend our book club time talking openly and
in-depth about the book, then gives us a great opportunity to bond with
fellow readers afterwards.

Everyone is welcome to take part in the discussion, and all are
encouraged to join us for social time after, too. Remember, they're
Saturday nights starting at 8:00.

At 1:59 a.m. in Spokane, Washington--eight days before the 1980 presidential election--Vince Camden pockets his stash of stolen credit cards and drops by an all-night poker game before heading to his witness-protection job dusting crullers at Donut Make You Hungry. Along with a neurotic hooker girlfriend, this is the total sum of Vince's new life. But when a familiar face shows up in town, Vince realizes his sordid past is still too close behind him. During the next unforgettable week, he'll negotiate a coast-to-coast maze of obsessive cops, eager politicians, and assorted mobsters--only to find that redemption might exist, of all places, in the voting booth.
