Books on Tap Book Discussion Our Traveling Book Discussion for Adults Feb. 16, 2020, 1 – 3 PM We’re meeting @ SCOTCHTOWN CRAFT, 741 Route 211 East, Middletown, NY 10941
This month, we’re reading The Immortalists by Chloe Benjamin. About the book: “If you knew the date of your death, how would you live your life? It’s 1969 in New York City’s Lower East Side, and word has spread of the arrival of a mystical woman, a traveling psychic who claims to be able to tell anyone the day they will die. The Gold children – four adolescents on the cusp of self-awareness-sneak out to hear their fortunes. The prophecies inform their next five decades. Golden-boy Simon escapes to the West Coast, searching for love in ’80s San Francisco; dreamy Klara becomes a Las Vegas magician, obsessed with blurring reality and fantasy; eldest son Daniel seeks security as an army doctor post-9/11; and bookish Varya throws herself into longevity research, where she tests the boundary between science and immortality.” Registration not required, but encouraged! Copies of this book (regular, Large Print, audio) are available for check out at Circulation. Questions? Please contact Theresa Zacek at 341-5483 or tzacek@rcls.org.
