SUMMARY:Tuesday Night Book Club: The Art Thief
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a discussion of The Art Thief\, a fascinating true-crime narrative by Michael Finkel. The book tells the story of Stéphane Breitwieser\, the world’s most prolific art thief\, who carried out over 200 heists across Europe. Unlike most thieves\, Breitwieser stole for the pure love of art\, keeping his treasures hidden away to admire rather than sell. With a remarkable ability to bypass security systems\, Breitwieser’s audacious heists are a captivating glimpse into the world of obsession\, crime\, and the desire to possess beauty at any cost. Copies of the book are available at the front desk\, and new members are welcome!
