KENT—The House of Books Book Club will meet March 20 at 6 p.m. to discuss “Pedro Paramo” by Juan Rulfo.

“Pedro Páramo” is the otherworldly tale of one man’s quest for his lost father. That man swears to his dying mother that he will find the father he has never met—Pedro Páramo—but when he reaches the town of Comala, he finds it haunted by memories and hallucinations. 

The new English-language edition by Rulfo scholar Douglas J. Weatherford features a foreword by Gabriel García Márquez.

The House of Books is located at 10 North Main St.
