AM Book Club

Thursday, August 20

11:00 am - 12:00 pm

Location: Shorewood Public Library Program Room

The AM Book Club is a great opportunity to talk about what you’ve read, learn something new, discover more great books, and meet new friends. Join us this month as we discuss The Art Thief: A True Story of Love, Crime, and a Dangerous Obsession by Michael Finkel.

For centuries, works of art have been stolen in countless ways from all over the world, but no one has been quite as successful as master thief Stéphane Breitwieser. Carrying out more than two hundred heists over nearly ten years--in museums and cathedrals all over Europe--Breitwieser stole more than three hundred objects, but never for money, keeping all his treasures in a single room where he could admire them to his heart's content.
