June Book

Roz has selected the next  novel.
  June 1 is the date.  






A rapturous novel of first love in a time of war-from the celebrated author of The Rhythm of Memory and The Last Van Gogh. 

In pre-war Prague, the dreams of two young lovers are shattered when they are separated by the Nazi invasion. Then, decades later, thousands of miles away in New York, there's an inescapable glance of recognition between two strangers...

Providence is giving Lenka and Josef one more chance. From the glamorous ease of life in Prague before the Occupation, to the horrors of Nazi Europe, The Lost Wife explores the power of first love, the resilience of the human spirit- and the strength of memory.

Enlightening, Engaging, Excellent

This month our group discussion is rated Excellent - 

in fact three E's as you see in the title.

An easy read as our hostess, Kelly said. But it was amazing what interesting discussion her questions brought forth.

Lovely food and drink as well.

Thanks Kelly!

Next month Kathy's selection is by another best selling author:

Sycamore Row

John Grisham's A Time to Kill is one of the most popular novels of our time. Now we return to that famous courthouse in Clanton as Jake Brigance once again finds himself embroiled in a fiercely controversial trial-a trial that will expose old racial tensions and force Ford County to confront its tortured history.
