Meet to discuss books of different genres the first Monday of each month. The November selection: My Friends by Fredrik Backman (fiction). Most people overlook them, three tiny figures perched at the edge of a long pier in one of the world’s most famous paintings. To everyone else, it’s just a tranquil seascape. But Louisa, an artist herself, senses there’s more to the scene than meets the eye. As she sets off on a journey to uncover the truth about the painting’s origins, the more she begins to question not just the artwork—but herself.
Dec. 7 selection: This Tender Land by William Kent Krueger (historical fiction).
