One Book One Middletown 2012

Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption
by Laura Hillenbrand
 
Save the evening of March 23rd (changed from March 30) for a book discussion led by Middletown High School students. This will be one event among many in late March and early April that will feature discussions or presentations around the themes in this book – competitive running, WWII, survival in extreme conditions, food memories, and writing memoirs. Stay tuned for further details on these events or visit
The goal of One Book is simple…to get a lot of people in the area to read the same book at the same time and then encourage them to talk about it.  By doing so, we hope that more people (especially more young people) will enjoy reading.
