The Fiction Old and New book group to discuss “Help Wanted” by Adelle Waldman, DB 121085. 12/06/2024
(BARD annotation below). We hope that you can join us to discuss this compelling story.   Here is the NLS annotation: Help wanted: a novel DB 121085 Waldman, Adelle. Reading time 9 hours, 27 minutes. Read by Katie Boothe. A production of National Library Service for the Blind and Print Disabled, Library of Congress.   Subjects: Humor; Human Relations; General   Description: “Every day at 3:55 a.m., members of Team Movement clock in for their shift at big-box store Town Square in a small upstate New York town. Under the eyes of a self-absorbed and barely competent boss, they empty the day’s truck of merchandise, stock the shelves, and scatter before the store opens and customers arrive. Their lives follow a familiar if grueling routine, but their real problem is that Town Square doesn’t schedule them for enough hours–most of them are barely getting by, even while working second or third jobs. When store manager Big Will announces he is leaving, the members of Movement spot an opportunity. If they play their cards right, one of them just might land a management job, with all the stability and possibility of advancement. The members of Team Movement–including a comedy-obsessed oddball who acts half his age, a young woman clinging on to her “cool kid” status from high school, and a college football hopeful trying to find a new path–band together to set a just-so-crazy-it-might-work plot in motion.” — Provided by publisher Strong language.   This book can be found on Bookshare at this link:   https://www.bookshare.org/browse/book/5915534?returnPath=L3NlYXJjaD9tb2R1bGVOYW1lPXB1YmxpYyZrZXl3b3JkPUhlbHAlMkJXYW50ZWQ   Our facilitator for this group is Michelle Bernstein (hamletsweetlady@gmail.com).
