Fall is here, folks. And it's time to resume the Common Good Book Club. Join us every first Monday of the month for good conversations about very good books. To kick start the series, we will be reading Stephen King's Under the Dome.
On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day, a small town is suddenly and
inexplicably sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible
force field. Planes crash into it and rain down flaming wreckage. A
gardener's hand is severed as the dome descends. Cars explode on
impact. Families are separated and panic mounts. No one can fathom what
the barrier is, where it came from, and when--or if--it will go away.
Now a few intrepid citizens, led by an Iraq vet turned short-order
cook, face down a ruthless politician dead set on seizing the reins of
power under the dome. But their main adversary is the dome itself.
Because time isn't just running short. It's running out.
