Radio Book Club: Stephen Graham Jones and Mongrels.

The July selection for the bookclub is Mongrels by Boulder based author Stephen Graham Jones. It’s a book that’s set in the deep South, about a teenage boy as he comes of age under the care of his aunt and uncle — who are werewolves. They are a family living on the fringe, struggling to survive in a society that shuns them: living in cars or trailers, moving every couple of months, eating from garbage cans, taking whatever work they can scrounge.

About the Radio Book Club:

KGNU is partnering with the Boulder Bookstore for our radio book club.

Every month Arsen Kashkashian, head buyer at the Boulder Bookstore, will select a book to inspire the KGNU listening audience to read along together. We will then be joined live in studio by the author for a call in show and book discussion. Arsen Kashkashian says participating in a bookclub is a great dynamic way for readers to enjoy a book.

“I think you read a book and it’s kind of a solitary experience and once you’ve read it and immersed yourself in this world, it’s great to have somebody to bounce ideas off of.”
