The June book club meeting has been delayed from June 1st until June 8th. We will be discussing our reader's choice picks for Mental Health Awareness month.

 

Then go home with a copy of "Less" by Andrew Sean Greer. We will meet again to discuss this book on July 6. 

 

 

In June we are celebrating Pride Month! The book club is reading Pulitzer Prize winner "Less" by Andrew Sean Greer.

 

This 2017 novel tells the story of Arthur Less, a moderately successful gay author. After receiving an invitation to his ex-lover's wedding, Arthur decides to get out of town. Arthur embarks on a world tour, attending a variety of unique author events including a contest on a golf resort in  Italy, and a guest teaching stint in Germany. As we hear about Arthur's travels in real time, there are flashbacks to his previous relationships throughout the book. Less is having a crisis of sorts- not knowing who he is or what he wants, both personally and professionally.
