The Measure
by Nikki Erlick
Discussion led by Olga Simoncelli
Copies available at the library
One day, a little wooden box arrives for each person on the planet, no matter where they are. This box holds each recipient’s fate inside: the answer to the exact number of years you will live. In an instant, the world is thrust into a collective frenzy. As society comes together and pulls apart, everyone faces the same shocking choice: Do they wish to know how long they’ll live? And, if so, what will they do with that knowledge? The Measure charts the dawn of this new world through an unforgettable cast of characters whose decisions and fates interweave with one another. The Measure is an ambitious story about family, friendship, hope, and destiny that encourages us to live life to the fullest.
