What: Books Sandwiched In welcomes Dr. Mark Littmann
When: Wednesday, October 24, 2018 - 12:00pm
Where: East Tennessee History Center

flashboys.jpgKnox County Public Library's Books Sandwiched In program will be a bit different this month. The Book to be presented is Flash Boys: A Wall Street Revolt by Michael Lewis. The presenter is Dr. Mark Littmann from the University of Tennessee. The program will be on Wednesday, October 24 at noon, in the East Tennessee History Center at 601 South Gay Street.

Here's the difference: any audience members who wish to, can participate in the program. "I've taken Flash Boys: A Wall Street Revolt, Michael Lewis's book about dishonesty in stock market trading, and converted it into the form of a play or movie script," Littmann says. "Audience members will all receive copies of the presentation, and those who are willing will read the dramatic script aloud in rotation." Active participation is not required, however. After the reading, Dr. Littmann will lead a discussion of Michael Lewis's book.
