We chose to have this year’s Bensenville Reads in September to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month. You can pick up a FREE copy of The Book of Unknown Americans starting in July (limited number of copies available). Copies of the book are also available for check out at the Library! Cristina Henríquez’s powerful novel captures readers with the quiet beauty of her characters and their profoundly wrought experiences as immigrants in America. The story takes place in a run-down apartment building in Delaware, home to nine families who arrived in the States from various South and Central American countries, each looking to better the lives of the next generation. In alternating chapters, these men and women share stories of how their adopted country has left its mark on them, for better and worse. With her cast of “unknown Americans,” Henriquez has crafted a novel that is inspiring, tragic, brave, and above all, unforgettable. 6 #BCPLSHELFIE CONTEST Take a photo of yourself somewhere in our library—in the stacks, reading a book, in the garden, at a program, etc.—and you could win a prize!
