This group meets to discuss thought-provoking fiction and nonfiction on the 2nd Monday of the month. All are welcome.
June's book is: The Great Alone by Kristin Hannah. Lenora Allbright is 13 when her father convinces her mother, Cora, to forgo their inauspicious existence in Seattle and move to Kaneq, AK. It's 1974, and the former Vietnam POW sees a better future away from the noise and nightmares that plague him. Having been left a homestead by a buddy who died in the war, Ernt is secure in his beliefs, but never was a family less prepared for the reality of Alaska, the long, cold winters and isolation.
