SUMMARY:Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a discussion of The Four Winds by Kristin Hannah. \nSummary: \n“Texas\, 1934. Millions are out of work and a drought has broken the Great Plains. Farmers are fighting to keep their land and their livelihoods as the crops are failing\, the water is drying up\, and dust threatens to bury them all. One of the darkest periods of the Great Depression\, the Dust Bowl era\, has arrived with a vengeance. \nIn this uncertain and dangerous time\, Elsa Martinelli—like so many of her neighbors—must make an agonizing choice: fight for the land she loves or go west\, to California\, in search of a better life. The Four Winds is an indelible portrait of America and the American Dream\, as seen through the eyes of one indomitable woman whose courage and sacrifice will come to define a generation. \nFrom the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Nightingale and The Great Alone comes an epic novel of love and heroism and hope\, set against the backdrop of one of America’s most defining eras—the Great Depression.” (via Goodreads)

SUMMARY:Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join us in the library for a discussion of July’s book\, Let Us Descend by Jesmyn Ward. \nSummary: \n“‘Let us descend\,’ the poet now began\, ‘and enter this blind world.’” — Inferno\, Dante Alighieri \nLet Us Descend is a reimagining of American slavery\, as beautifully rendered as it is heart-wrenching. Searching\, harrowing\, replete with transcendent love\, the novel is a journey from the rice fields of the Carolinas to the slave markets of New Orleans and into the fearsome heart of a Louisiana sugar plantation. \nAnnis\, sold south by the white enslaver who fathered her\, is the reader’s guide through this hellscape. As she struggles through the miles-long march\, Annis turns inward\, seeking comfort from memories of her mother and stories of her African warrior grandmother. Throughout\, she opens herself to a world beyond this world\, one teeming with of earth and water\, of myth and history; spirits who nurture and give\, and those who manipulate and take. While Ward leads readers through the descent\, this\, her fourth novel\, is ultimately a story of rebirth and reclamation. \nFrom one of the most singularly brilliant and beloved writers of her generation\, this miracle of a novel inscribes Black American grief and joy into the very land—the rich but unforgiving forests\, swamps\, and rivers of the American South. Let Us Descend is Jesmyn Ward’s most magnificent novel yet\, a masterwork for the ages.” (via goodreads)

SUMMARY:Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join us in the library for a discussion of June’s book Sarah’s Key by Tatiana de Rosnay. \nSummary: \n“Paris\, July 1942: Ten-year-old Sarah is brutally arrested with her family in the Vel’ d’Hiv’ roundup\, the most notorious act of French collaboration with the Nazis. but before the police come to take them\, Sarah locks her younger brother\, Michel\, in their favorite hiding place\, a cupboard in the family’s apartment. She keeps the key\, thinking that she will be back within a few hours. \nParis\, May 2002: On Vel’ d’Hiv’s sixtieth anniversary\, Julia Jarmond\, an American journalist\, is asked by her Paris-based American magazine to write an article about this black day in France’s past. Julia has lived in Paris for nearly twenty-five years\, married a Frenchman\, and she is shocked both by her ignorance about the event and the silence that still surrounds it. In the course of her investigation\, she stumbles onto a trail of long-hidden family secrets that connects her to Sarah. Julia finds herself compelled to retrace the girl’s ordeal\, from the terrible days spent shut in at the Vel’ d’Hiv’ to the camps and beyond. As she probes into Sarah’s past\, she begins to question her own place in France and to reevaluate her marriage and her life. \nWriting about the fate of her country with a pitiless clarity\, Tatiana de Rosnay offers us a brilliantly subtle\, compelling portrait of France under occupation and reveals the taboos and denial surrounding this painful episode in French history.” (via goodreads)

SUMMARY:Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join us in the library for a discussion of May’s book After I’m Gone by Laura Lippman. \nSummary: \n“Dead is dead. Missing is gone. \nWhen Felix Brewer meets nineteen-year-old Bernadette “Bambi” Gottschalk at a Valentine’s Day dance in 1959\, he charms her with wild promises\, some of which he actually keeps. Thanks to his lucrative—if not all legal—businesses\, she and their three little girls live in luxury. But on the Fourth of July in 1976\, Bambi’s comfortable world implodes when Felix\, facing prison\, vanishes. \nThough Bambi has no idea where her husband—or his money—might be\, she suspects one woman does: his devoted young mistress\, Julie. When Julie disappears ten years to the day after Felix went on the lam\, everyone assumes she’s left to join her old lover—until her remains are discovered in a secluded park. \nNow\, twenty-six years later\, Roberto “Sandy” Sanchez\, a retired Baltimore detective working cold cases for some extra cash\, is investigating her murder. What he discovers is a tangled web of bitterness\, jealousy\, resentment\, greed\, and longing stretching over five decades. And at its center is the man who\, though long gone\, has never been forgotten by the five women who loved him: the enigmatic Felix Brewer. \nFelix Brewer left five women behind. Now there are four. Does at least one of them know the truth?” (via goodreads)
