This event takes place at Lake Bluff Public Library.
Join Carol in a discussion of "Dopesick: Dealers, Doctors, and the Drug Company that Addicted America."
Author Beth Macy takes us into the epicenter of America's twenty-plus year struggle with opioid addiction. From distressed small communities in Central Appalachia to wealthy suburbs; from disparate cities to once-idyllic farm towns; it's a heartbreaking trajectory that illustrates how this national crisis has persisted for so long and become so firmly entrenched.
