Czech’em Out Book Club

Join NCSML volunteer Steve Pederson in the Skala Bartizal Library this month where we’ll discuss Vera’s Story by J.K. DeRosa. Czech’em Out Book Club meets on the third Monday of each month following the reading of each months selected book.

About the book

Vera’s Story is a deeply personal one.

It is the powerful tale of a Czech family caught up in the storm of history, from the aftermath of World War I through the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Seventy-five years later, their wounds have healed, but the scars that remain compel the telling of this story of hope, courage, and perseverance.
