FROG Book Meeting – Unsheltered – Dec. 15, 2019
Book description: Willa Knox has always prided herself on being the embodiment of responsibility for her family. Which is why it’s so unnerving that she’s arrived at middle age with nothing to show for her hard work and dedication but a stack of unpaid bills and an inherited brick home in Vineland, New Jersey, that is literally falling apart. The magazine where she worked has folded, and the college where her husband had tenure has closed. As always, Kingsolver gives readers plenty to think about. Her warm humanism coupled with an unabashed point of view make her a fine 21st-century exponent of the honorable tradition of politically engaged fiction.
We will be meeting Sunday December 15th from 3:00 to 5:00 PM in the meeting room at the Lakewood Public Library. The library is located at 10200 W 20th Ave in Lakewood, just 3 blocks West of Kipling. Please feel free to join us even if you haven’t finished the book.
After the meeting join us at Mountain Tap Bar & Grill, just a few blocks away in the Applegrove Shopping Center at 1901 Youngfield St, Golden 80401, to continue the conversation over a beverage. http://www.mountaintap.com .
