What is President Obama Reading?

According to a report in The New Yorker, the President is reading a novel to take his mind off of all that executive branch business. Netherland, a 2008 novel by Joseph O'Neill, is about a Dutch man in New York City after September 11. The book was a bestseller in the United States and won the 2009 Pen/Faulkner Award for Fiction.

Are you interested in checking out the novel that the most powerful man in the world is reading? Although Nielsen Library does not own a copy (yet!), it can be borrowed in Marmot via a patron placed hold. Come to the 2nd floor reference desk or call 719-587-7879 for more information.
