January Book Club
The selection for the upcoming OPALGA book club meeting is Fall on Your Knees by Canadian playwright and actor Ann-Marie MacDonald. This novel is a sprawling saga about five generations of a family from Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. This epic tale of family history, family secrets, and music centers on four sisters and their relationships with each other and with their father. Set in the coalmining communities of Nova Scotia in the early part of the twentieth century, the story also shifts to the battlefields of World War I and the jazz scene of New York City in the 1920s.
The book club will meet on Sunday, January 14, 2007, at 2:00 p.m. at The OPALGA Center, 947 Garfield, Oak Park. Copies of the book are available at http://www.amazon.com, the Oak Park Public Library (834 Lake St., Oak Park), and The Book Table (1045 Lake St., Oak Park). Please join us for a lively and interesting discussion!
