Ferndale Book Group In-Person

Join us as we read Good Night, Irene by Luis Alberto Urrea.

Good Night, Irene is a historical fiction novel based in 1943. Irene Woodward abandons an abusive fiancé in New York and heads to Europe with the Red Cross. She makes friends with Dorothy Dunford, and they become part of the Donut Dollies: providing camaraderie and a taste of home at the front lines before the troops head into battle. Seeing service from the Battle of the Bulge to the liberation of Buchenwald, Irene develops friendships that help her learn to trust again.
