Contemporary Book Club @ Good Company Bookstore

Join us for an evening of books, conversation, and community as we dive into recent works of contemporary fiction!

Book of the Month: Martyr! by Kaveh Akbar’s

About the Book: Kaveh Akbar’s Martyr! is a paean to how we spend our lives seeking meaning - in faith, art, ourselves, others - in which a newly sober, orphaned son of Iranian immigrants, guided by the voices of artists, poets, and kings, embarks on a search that leads him to a terminally ill painter living out her final days in the Brooklyn Museum.
