DESCRIPTION:Join the Germantown Novel Views Book Club to discuss "Olive Ki
 tteridge" by Elizabeth Strout..\nhttps://mcpl.libnet.info/event/9893044
X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p><strong> The Novel Views Book Club will me
 et in Study Room 5\, located on the lower level of the library.&nbsp\;</st
 rong></p>\n<p>"At the edge of the continent\, Crosby\, Maine\, may seem li
 ke nowhere\, but seen through this brilliant writer&rsquo\;s eyes\, it&rsq
 uo\;s in essence the whole world\, and the lives that are lived there are 
 filled with all of the grand human drama&ndash\;desire\, despair\, jealous
 y\, hope\, and love. At times stern\, at other times patient\, at times pe
 rceptive\, at other times in sad denial\, Olive Kitteridge\, a retired sch
 oolteacher\, deplores the changes in her little town and in the world at l
 arge\, but she doesn&rsquo\;t always recognize the changes in those around
  her: a lounge musician haunted by a past romance: a former student who ha
 s lost the will to live: Olive&rsquo\;s own adult child\, who feels tyrann
 ized by her irrational sensitivities\; and Henry\, who finds his loyalty t
 o his marriage both a blessing and a curse. As the townspeople grapple wit
 h their problems\, mild and dire\, Olive is brought to a deeper understand
 ing of herself and her life&ndash\;sometimes painfully\, but always with r
 uthless honesty." MCPL Catalogue</p>\n<p>Print copies may be available at
