In-Person Book Group

Monday, August 26th at 1:30 PM in Nolt Auditorium

August’s book for the afternoon in -person group is: Prodigal Summer by Barbara Kingsolver The author grew up in Kentucky and has a degree in biology. She has written about her family’s experience spending an entire year growing and preserving organic food and living independent of grocery stores. Other books are evidence of her second home in Arizona and her love of native peoples. Bean Trees, and Animal Dreams are among my favorites.

Prodigal Summer delves into the struggles of living and farming as nature has her way. Kingsolver is not afraid to write the world as it truly is and to weave into the story the strength of the human spirit.

Grace Book Group—Books, Coffee, & Conversation

The BCC group will meet on August 13 at 7 pm on Zoom. Please read a biography, autobiography, or memoir. If you would like to join the group or have any questions please contact Brenda Hayasaka.
