Nicole's home proved to be a great setting for our February meeting, wouldn't you agree? As we discussed Joan Didion's sad and sometimes difficult memoir, we had front-row seat to watch the total eclipse of the moon through Nicole's floor-to-ceiling windows.
Twelve books were suggested for our next series. I was totally impressed at how we narrowed it down to three so easily.
For those who couldn't make it, they are three books of historical fiction.
For March: The Birth of Venus by Sarah Dunant, set in Renaissance Italy. Suggested by Margaret.
For April: Stones from the River by Ursula Hegi, about a gossipy dwarf in Post World War I Germany. Suggested by Becca.
For May: Triangle by Katharine Weber, the story of a survivor of the Triangle Shirtwaist fire that sparked the American labor movement. Suggested by yours truly.
