COME JOIN US ~ EVERYONE WELCOME!

The Book Club meets monthly to explore four books from Clifton Fadiman’s Lifetime Reading Plan—a list of 100 books that “fill our minds with what the greatest writers of the Western Tradition of literature in English have thought, felt, and imagined.” The list includes fiction, non-fiction, and poetry.

Though the reading list is rooted in classic literature, our main goal is to have fun while engaging in meaningful, respectful conversations. Meetings are a chance to enjoy great books, share ideas, and connect with other mature adults who love reading.

The Tent Peg – Aretha Van Herk – 2005
Aritha van Herk uses her unerring perception and impressive literary skill to capture the mystical mood of the Arctic and the people who are drawn to it. In this intriguing story, a young woman who disguises herself as a man to work in a uranium prospecting camp deep in the Yukon mountains. J.L. is on the run from an empty heart and is desperate for solitude. Yet solitude eludes her from the moment she hangs up her pots and pans in the cook tent, and the men in the camp begin to drift toward her, drawn by her silence.
