We had a small but vociferous group tonight at Christine’s discussing “Becoming.” Great questions from Natalie and a rare consensus that everyone liked the book, and, incidentally, also liked Michelle Obama. Thanks to Christine for a delicious and super healthy dinner.
Christine has chosen “Improvement” by Joan Silber for February. Written in 2017, it was the Pen Faulkner & National Book Critics winner. From the blurb, “One of the most gifted writers of fiction returns with a bold and piercing novel about a single mother living in New York, her eccentric aunt, and the decisions they make that have unexpected implications for the world around them.” I don’t know about the rest of you, but I am all about this eccentric aunt.
February book club will be at my house. Natalie and I switched. See you next month.
