Thanks to a generous gift from A to Z Wineworks here in Newberg, readers can participate in the Everybody Reads 2015 program hosted by Literary Arts and the Multnomah County Library.

This year’s selection is Mitchell S. Jackson’s The Residue Years, a   captivating story of a family’s struggles in a neglected neighborhood of 1990’s Portland.  

Books are available upstairs at the library.   Take a book and pass it on…

Again, thanks to Literary Arts and A to Z Wineworks, you can enter to win two tickets to Mr. Jackson's presentation in Portland on March 10th.   Enter at the Library. 

“The issues in the book are very present today: what are the effects of gentrification?  How do people color institute change?” 

  —-Mitchell S. Jackson
