Page-Turners Society: Or Monsters, Mysteries, Cowboys, Crimes and Spies

Join us as we explore The Sympathizer by Viet Thanh Nguyen, the Pulitzer Prize-winning debut novel that’s equal parts gripping spy thriller and searing political commentary. Set in the aftermath of the Vietnam War, this darkly comic tale follows a conflicted double agent navigating life in exile while wrestling with questions of loyalty, identity and memory. 

Whether you’ve finished the novel or are just diving in, everyone is welcome. We’ll continue getting to know one another, gather suggestions for future reads and engage in an insightful discussion about The Sympathizer; its provocative themes, complex narrator and Nguyen’s bold, distinctive voice.
