More 21st Century Standouts! That’s the theme for the next series of Evening Book Club picks (February through May).
Join us April 8 at 6:45 p.m. in the Margaret Knoll Gardner Lecture Room for a lively discussion of A Visit from the Goon Squad, by Jennifer Egan.
Fiction. Bennie is an aging former punk rocker and record executive. Sasha is the passionate, troubled young woman he employs. We learn about their past even though they don’t share their stories with each other.
“‘Time’s a goon,’ as the action moves from the late 1970s to the early 2020s while Bennie and Sasha wonder what happened to their youthful selves and ideals.” — Kirkus starred review.
Copies can be borrowed on interlibrary loan or purchased from one of Emmaus’ independent bookstores. Also available on Libby as an ebook.
