Program Description

Event Details

Sometimes life can be stranger than fiction. Join us for a virtual discussion of The Other Wes Moore: One Name, Two Fates by Wes Moore. Copies of the book are available for checkout at the Circulation Desk.

Two kids with the same name were born blocks apart in the same decaying city within a few years of each other. One grew up to be a Rhodes Scholar, army officer, White House Fellow, and business leader. The other is serving a life sentence in prison. Told in alternating dramatic narratives that take readers from heart-wrenching losses to moments of surprising redemption, this is the story of two boys and the journey of a generation trying to find their way in a hostile world.
