A group of veteran members now manages this long-standing Huntington Public Library book group.

Selections are from Great Conversations 2, available for purchase at the Main Library front desk for at the reduced price of $10 thanks to a generous donation from the Friends of the Library.

“The Grand Inquisitor,” (from the Brothers Karamazov) by Fyodor Dostoevsky (1821-1881): An aged cardinal and Spanish Inquisitor finds himself face-to-face with Jesus, who has returned to Earth. Dostoevsky dramatizes Ivan Karamazov’s repudiation of faith though the vehicle of this great parable.
