SUMMARY:Village Book Club at Charles McGee Library
DESCRIPTION:Silver Spring Village’s in-person book club will meet on the fourth Thursday afternoon of each month at 3:00 at the Brig. General Charles McGee Library at 900 Wayne Avenue. \nThe book is: The Half Known Life: In Search Of Paradise by Pico Iyer \nA journey through competing ideas of paradise to see how we can live more peacefully in an ever more divided and distracted world. Paradise: that elusive place where the anxieties\, struggles\, and burdens of life fall away. Most of us dream of it\, but each of us has very different ideas about where it is to be found. For some it can be enjoyed only after death; for others\, it’s in our midst—or just across the ocean—if only we can find eyes to see it. Traveling from Iran to North Korea\, from the Dalai Lama’s Himalayas to the ghostly temples of Japan\, Pico Iyer brings together a lifetime of explorations to upend our ideas of utopia and ask how we might find peace in the midst of difficulty and suffering. Does religion lead us back to Eden or only into constant contention? Why do so many seeming paradises turn into warzones? And does paradise exist only in the afterworld – or can it be found in the here and now? For almost fifty years Iyer has been roaming the world\, mixing a global soul’s delight in observing cultures with a pilgrim’s readiness to be transformed. In this culminating work\, he brings together the outer world and the inner to offer us a surprising\, original\, often beautiful exploration of how we might come upon paradise in the midst of our very real lives.

SUMMARY:Village Book Club at Charles McGee Library
DESCRIPTION:Silver Spring Village’s in-person book club will meet on the fourth Thursday afternoon of each month at 3:00 at the Brig. General Charles McGee Library at 900 Wayne Avenue. \nThe book is: Crying In H Mart by Michelle Zauner \nIn this exquisite story of family\, food\, grief\, and endurance\, Michelle Zauner proves herself far more than a dazzling singer\, songwriter\, and guitarist. With humor and heart\, she tells of growing up one of the few Asian American kids at her school in Eugene\, Oregon; of struggling with her mother’s particular\, high expectations of her; of a painful adolescence; of treasured months spent in her grandmother’s tiny apartment in Seoul\, where she and her mother would bond\, late at night\, over heaping plates of food. Vivacious and plainspoken\, lyrical and honest\, Zauner’s voice is as radiantly alive on the page as it is onstage. Rich with intimate anecdotes that will resonate widely\, and complete with family photos. \n
