Sixteen-year-old Nao's diary unexpectedly connects her with Ruth, a novelist across the Pacific, in a moving story about time, memory, and human connection.

World Through Fiction is a brand new book club dedicated to exploring different people, places, times and experiences across our globe. Scheduled to accommodate working adults, this is open to all fiction lovers who want to read interesting novels that help us learn about the world we live in. Pick up our next book and join us!

Janna Gullery works as a college dean in White Plains and teaches courses in human services as an adjunct professor. In her free time, she serves on a nonprofit board and a committee under the New Rochelle City Council. She loves to travel, and even when she can't, she's always reading. Reading has helped her grow her lifelong passion for exploring a connected world, continued to spark her curiosity, and helped to teach her who she is. She looks forward to facilitating an engaging and dynamic book club for all fiction readers.

Please check our catalogue for copies of the book
