Hello Ladies
Just wanted to let you know that our War and Peace book lunch will be held next Tuesday the 27th at 12:30.  It will be at Heather Friant's home (345 West Liz's Way in Monroe).  Plan on a Russian lunch and a book discussion for War and Peace.  Please RSVP.  Thanks.  Heather

Cancel book lunch sorry...

So sorry to do this ladies because I was really looking forward to to this months book lunch but
My basement flooded..like completely ( the main water line busted) so we are living in a disaster zone. It looks like my downstairs threw up all over my upstairs.

I will figure out another time to have you all over for empanadas and Latin American literature
Thanks!!!!!

July Book Info

If you're in the mood for more oppressive dictatorial government regimes then this month's book will be right up your alley!   In the Time of the Butterflies by Julia Alvarez is based on the true story of the heroic Mirabal sisters who spoke out during the Dominican Republic's reign under Trujillo.

If, however, you only have time for this during this busy month, please choose a poem from Chile's Nobel prize winning poet, Pablo Neruda to read and share at this month's book lunch.
Many of his poems are available to read online by clicking on this link:
Pablo Neruda  or go to poemhunter.com/pablo-neruda

I will plan on giving a little biography about him because I went to Chile for a Semester Abroad and was able to visit his seaside abode and museum.
We will have my favorite Chilean food as well: empanadas

So plan on Book Lunch this month with South American fare at my house--Laura C's
