Put Me In Your Place Book Club: Stay True

Immerse yourself in the settings, cultures, and atmospheres that shape characters and stories.

Each month at 83 Broadway in the Rondout we expand our horizons, engage in rich discussions, and experience how place – more than just a backdrop – can be a character all its own.
Plus enjoy doughnuts and coffee.

August's selection is Piranesi by Susanna Clarke.

The instant New York Times bestselling novel from the author of Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, an intoxicating, hypnotic book set in a dreamlike alternative reality.


Piranesi's house is no ordinary building: its rooms are infinite, its corridors endless, its walls are lined with thousands upon thousands of statues, each one different from all the others. Within the labyrinth of halls an ocean is imprisoned; waves thunder up staircases, rooms are flooded in an instant. But Piranesi is not afraid; he understands the tides as he understands the pattern of the labyrinth itself. He lives to explore the house.
