Illiterati: Gen X Book Club
"The History of Love"
by Nicole Krauss
Illiterati: Gen X Book Club will meet at FUSION | 708 on Sunday, September 7, from 11 AM–1 PM. The August discussion will be on The History of Love by Nicole Krauss.
It turns out we weren't the first: everybody loves love. Let's sneak into its diary and see what love has been up to when we weren't looking. This is a highly recommended read, written by the wife of the previous author discussed in the book club.
About The History of Love
Fourteen-year-old Alma Singer is trying to find a cure for her mother's loneliness. Believing she might discover it in an old book her mother is lovingly translating, she sets out in search of its author.
Across New York an old man called Leo Gursky is trying to survive a little bit longer. He spends his days dreaming of the lost love who, sixty years ago in Poland, inspired him to write a book. And although he doesn't know it yet, that book also survived: crossing oceans and generations, and changing lives...
Please don't forget we are a media-positive book group. Finish the book and treat yourself to the movie! Audiobookers welcome too.
***BYO snacks and drinks!
This book club is FREE and open to the public!
