Dear Bookclub,
Our philosophical-love-story read, "American Philosophy" steeped in Piacere Mio, 'my pleasure', was just that. I adored the references to the American Transcendentalists(Concord!) while we all took pleasure in Kaag's story, savoring Del Sur-authentic-Italian. Val, we missed you.
My recent trip to Concord included a walk around Walden Pond with my mom. It is a peaceful place, especially the day we were there (it can get touristy). Check out the man, pond-side. From afar we imagined he was a plein air painter. Upon further inspection, clearly his 'paints' were a computer inside a box on his lap. A laptop. Maybe he lives under a tree up the hill.

Finally Terrie's suggestions:
Elizabeth Strout "Anything is Possible"
Eowyn Ivey "The Bright Edge of the World" * chosen
Emily Ruskovich "Idaho"
Up next: Graham Moore's "The Last Days of Light"
Happy reading,
LK
