Special Book Discussion: Playground by Richard Powers - in celebration of our unique podcast interview with the author on our Deerfield Public Library Podcast.

In celebration of our recent unique Deerfield Public Library Podcast conversation with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Richard Powers, we’re discussing his latest novel, Playground, as a  special discussion! Books will be available for checkout a month before the discussion. Listen to our podcast with Richard Powers here: www.deerfieldlibrary.org/richard-powers/

In Playground, Richard Powers weaves together stories about teen intellectuals growing up in Chicagoland, oceanography, and AI, culminating in an urgent novel for our time.
