7/27/16: Book Club Discusses MY BRILLIANT FRIEND

Posted on ; Filed under Events

On Wednesday, July 27, 7pm, the St. James Book Club will meet to discuss Elena Ferrante’s popular My Brilliant Friend. Described as rich, intense, and a touching meditation on the nature of friendship, the story follows the lives of two women who grew up together in a poor neighborhood near Naples, Italy, in the 1950s.

You can purchase the book at Amazon–-paperback or Kindle edition-for about $10. The book is also available in many formats (hardcover, large-print, audio, etc.) at most libraries. Locate your local library, most of which offer inter-library loans, here. Locate your nearest independent bookstore here.

Please join us. All are welcome!
