Dear Book Club friends

In July we meet to discuss the book "Jazz" by Toni Morrison, selected for us by Konstantina.

Important note for first-time attendees: if you decide to attend, the group expects you to have read the book and present your opinion.

Here a short description from Amazon.com:
"Joe Trace – in his fifties, door-to-door salesman of Cleopatra beauty products, erstwhile devoted husband – shoots dead his lover of three months, the impetuous, eighteen-year-old Dorcas.
At the funeral, his determined, hard-working wife, Violet, who is given to stumbling into dark mental cracks, tries with a knife to disfigure the corpse.

Passionate and profound, Jazz brings us back and forth in time, in a narrative assembled from the hopes, fears and realities of black urban life."

Please remember to cancel your attendance if you are unable to participate to leave your place to others. No-shows from past activities are tracked.

Looking forward to seeing you there!
