Jemisin — and Battery Park City Library is hosting a discussion open to all. Jemisin's urban fantasy follows six souls of New York who must come together, despite their differences, to fight a common enemy. Weaving themes of diversity, gentrification, prejudice, and nature into a fast-paced ride, the novel is as much a love letter to the city as it is a thriller. Free copies available while supplies last — one per person, first come, first served. The e-book and audiobook are also available with a Library card.
