The idea of the American Dream is ubiquitous in society today - and yet, for most people, the American Dream is a vague and undefined notion we all take for granted without too much conscious thought about what it means.
This series of five books discussions will examine what the American Dream is through a variety of texts. Join with a group of readers to understand and express your vision of the American Dream. Copies of all the books will be available at the Library.
