SUMMARY:Adult Book Club
DESCRIPTION:The Maywood Library Book Club meets on the third Friday of the 
 month.  This month\, we'll be discussing \n\nA Long Petal Of The Sea by 
 Isabel Allende\n\nCivil War Grips Spain! It's the late 1930s and General 
 Franco and his Fascists have succeeded in overthrowing the government. 
 Hundreds of thousands of Spaniards are forced to flee over the mountains to 
 the French border. A pregnant young widow\, Roser\, is among them. She 
 finds her life entwined with an army doctor named Victor Dalmau\, brother 
 to her late husband. In order to survive\, they must enter into a marriage 
 neither one of them desires.\n\n  Together with two thousand refugees\, 
 Roser and Victor embark on the SS Winnipeg\, a ship chartered by Pablo 
 Neruda\, to Chile\, "the long petal of the sea and wine and snow." As 
 unlikely partners\, they embrace their exile as the rest of Europe erupts 
 in world war. The two of them face trial after trial\, but also find joy\, 
 awaiting the day when they might return home.\n\n  Join us on Friday\, July 
 19th\, at 11:30AM to discuss this masterful work of historical fiction 
 about hope\, exile\, and belonging. And perhaps discover\, alongside Roser 
 and Victor\, that home might have been closer than they thought all 
 along.\n\n \n\n
