BART wants people to get into reading books on its trains, which might mean more people missing their stops.
The club's first selection is Hua Hsu's"Stay True," which the transit agency said in a press release is"a bracing coming-of-age story set in 1990s Berkeley that recently won the 2023 Pulitzer Prize for Memoir."
Berkeley's Revolution Books, which is featured in"Stay True," will be there to sell copies of the book and the Oakland Public Library will have a table with information about its collection and programs as well as a button-making station. The agency said it hopes to honor the long tradition of reading books on BART while celebrating the literary ecosystem in the Bay Area"from our region's trove of independent bookstores to our incredible libraries to our made-in-the-Bay writers, poets, and literary scholars."
