Three Finalists Announced For One Book–One Lincoln

Published on May 31, 2021

Lincoln City Libraries (LCL) today announced the three finalists for the 2021 One Book–One Lincoln Community Reading Program. The finalists are: 

  • “Hidden Valley Road” by Robert Kolker 
  • “Interior Chinatown” by Charles Yu 
  • “Transcendent Kingdom” by Yaa Gyasi 

The book selection process began in February when an 18-member selection team of community readers narrowed the 196 nominations down to the top three. The community is invited to vote to select the top title for the 2021 reading program. The deadline for voting is July 31. Ballots are available online only at lincolnlibraries.org

The books are available in print, compact disc, downloadable audio and ebook formats and may be borrowed by placing reservations through the library catalog at lincolnlibraries.org

LCL has sponsored the annual program since 2002 to encourage reading and dialogue by creating a community-wide reading and discussion experience. Find out more about LCL and upcoming One Book-One Lincoln events at lincolnlibraries.org
