About this event
The McArdle Family Community Room. Join our always interesting evening book club led by facilitator, Judy Berg, as the group discusses popular fiction and non-fiction. This month's book is Distant Land of My Father by Bo Caldwell. "Anna, the narrator of this riveting first novel, lives in a storybook world: exotic pre- World War II Shanghai, with handsome young parents, wealth, and comfort. Her father, the son of missionaries, leads a charmed and secretive life, though his greatest joy is sharing his beloved city with his only daughter. Yet when Anna and her mother flee Japanese-occupied Shanghai to return to California, he stays behind, believing his connections and a little bit of luck will keep him safe." Sponsored by The Friends of Cos Cob Library.
