Shelter Island Book Club: The Burgess Boys by Elizabeth Strout, 5 p.m. Haunted by their father’s death, Jim and Bob Burgess escape to New  York City as soon as possible. Jim, a sleek, successful corporate lawyer, has belittled his bighearted brother their whole lives, and Bob, a Legal Aid attorney who idolizes Jim, has always taken it in stride. But their long-standing dynamic is upended when their sister, Susan — the Burgess sibling who stayed behind — urgently calls them home. Visit silibrary.org to register.
