On the morning of April 29, 1986, a fire alarm sounded in the Los Angeles Public Library. The fire was disastrous. By the time it was extinguished, it had consumed four hundred thousand books and damaged seven hundred thousand more. More than thirty years later, the mystery remains.
Susan Orlean’s thrilling journey also includes the broader story of how these beloved institutions provide much more than just books—and why they remain an essential part of our country.
