SUMMARY:September 2021 Book Club
DESCRIPTION:The Whiting Library Book Club monthly discussion for September is being held in person at the library AND simultaneously live on Zoom. The discussion will take place at 3pm on Wednesday\, September 15th\, 2021.  The book pick for September is Hamnet by Maggie O’Farrell.  \nPlease feel free to join the book club group any month\, all are welcome! If you need a copy to read\, Whiting Library has copies ready to lend. Just give us a call or shoot us an email to reserve your copy. \nIf you have any questions or would like to get on the email list for the Book Club\, please contact Deirdre at the library. You can email whitinglibrary1@gmail.com or call 875-2277. \nAbout Hamnet from Amazon: \nNEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • WINNER OF THE NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD \n“Of all the stories that argue and speculate about Shakespeare’s life… here is a novel … so gorgeously written that it transports you.” —The Boston Globe \nIn 1580’s England\, during the Black Plague a young Latin tutor falls in love with an extraordinary\, eccentric young woman in this “exceptional historical novel” (The New Yorker) and best-selling winner of the Women’s Prize for Fiction. \nAgnes is a wild creature who walks her family’s land with a falcon on her glove and is known throughout the countryside for her unusual gifts as a healer\, understanding plants and potions better than she does people. Once she settles with her husband on Henley Street in Stratford-upon-Avon she becomes a fiercely protective mother and a steadfast\, centrifugal force in the life of her young husband\, whose career on the London stage is taking off when his beloved young son succumbs to sudden fever. \nA luminous portrait of a marriage\, a shattering evocation of a family ravaged by grief and loss\, and a tender and unforgettable re-imagining of a boy whose life has been all but forgotten\, and whose name was given to one of the most celebrated plays of all time\, Hamnet is mesmerizing\, seductive\, impossible to put down—a magnificent leap forward from one of our most gifted novelists. \n  \nThe Zoom Meeting login information is here: \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/81900041488 \nMeeting ID: 819 0004 1488
