Program Description

Event Details

Join us via Zoom for our regular meetings as we discuss mystery novels of the Golden Era.  From the famous to the lesser known, and the newly rediscovered, authors of classic mystery fiction, from the 1920s through the 1950s. 


This month we will dive into Raymond Chandler's first novel, "The Big Sleep" (1939).  Featuring "shamus" Philip Marlowe in a classic story of suspense.  This book was a finalist for the best Mystery Novel of the 20th Century!

Special book group copies are also set aside roughly one month before the discussion and can be requested on a first come, first serve basis by emailing circ@fallschurchva.gov
