The Iola Public Library Intrepid Readers, a book discussion group that meets monthly, will discuss “The Overstory” by Richard Powers.

Powers’s novel, the winner of the 2019 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, is a story of nine Americans whose unique life experiences with trees bring them together to address the destruction of forests.

The selection replaces “First: Sandra Day O’Connor” by Evan Thomas, which originally had been slated for the book discussion group.

The Intrepid Readers will meet at 2 p.m. Aug. 1 at the library meeting room.
