Wilmette Reads is spotlighting \;T he Sentence \;by Louise Erdrich.
\nA small independent book store in Minneapolis is haunted from November 2019 to November 2020 by the store's most annoying customer. \;Flora dies on All Souls' Day\, but she simply won't leave the store. \;Tookie\, who has landed a job sell ing books after years of incarceration that she survived by reading "with murderous attention"\, must solve the mystery of this haunting while at th e same time trying to understand all that occurs in Minneapolis during a y ear of grief\, astonishment\, isolation\, and furious reckoning.
\n< em>The Sentence \;begins on All Souls' Day 2019 and ends on All S ouls' Day 2020. Its mystery and proliferating ghost stories during this on e year propel a narrative as rich\, emotional\, and profound as anything L ouise Erdrich has written. (From the publisher)
