The December book is Middlesex by Jeffrey

Eugenides. While not wanting to give the

plot of this novel away, the following quote

from Amazon will hopefully entice you into

picking up this book and joining us.

“When you get to the end of this splendorous

book, when you suddenly realize

that after hundreds of pages you have only

a few more left to turn over, you'll experience

a quick pang of regret knowing that

your time with Cal is coming to a close, and

you may even resist finishing it--putting it

aside for an hour or two, or maybe

overnight--just so that this wondrous,

magical novel might never end.”

We will be meeting on Monday, December

1. If you would be willing to host this

meeting --- or moderate this meeting --

please contact Joanne.
