The Museum of the Mississippi Delta announces the creation of the Topophilia Book Club, whose purpose is to connect readers to this region through a thoughtfully curated selection of books with a connection to this land. Six books have been chosen for the upcoming year and the discussions will be led by local physician, author and historian, Dr. Mary Carol Miller.The book club will meet bi-monthly to discuss fiction and non-fiction books connected to the Mississippi Delta. In addition to book discussions, other programs related to the book selections will be hosted by the Museum. The books are selected in advance and planned for the entire year, often coordinating with the Museum’s exhibition schedule. A list of the 2021-2022 selections is attached.
