Starr King Book Group - Our next meeting is scheduled for Monday October 7th at 3:00 pm. The book selected is Paris in the Present Tense by the great novelist Mark Helprin. We picked this by looking at a list of books recommended for every year of life. We figured the average age of our group was about 74 and the book recommended for that age is this recent acclaimed novel by Helprin.
From Amazon: The New York Times best-selling author of Winter's Tale and A Soldier of the Great War, Mark Helprin reveals a powerful, rapturous novel set in a present-day Paris caught between violent unrest and its well-known, inescapable glories. Seventy-four-year-old Jules Lacour - a maître at Paris-Sorbonne, cellist, widower, veteran of the war in Algeria, and child of the Holocaust - must find a balance between his strong obligations to the past and the attractions and beauties of life and love in the present.
I hope you will join us on the 7th for what is sure to be a stimulating conversation.
