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. All are welcome. \nThe July 2025 book is: Little Failure by Gary Shteyngart. \nAfter three acclaimed novels\, Gary Shteyngart turns to memoir in a candid\, witty\, deeply poignant account of his life so far. Shteyngart shares his American immigrant experience\, moving back and forth through time and memory with self-deprecating humor\, moving insights\, and literary bravado. The result is a resonant story of family and belonging that feels epic and intimate and distinctly his own. Born Igor Shteyngart in Leningrad during the twilight of the Soviet Union\, the curious\, diminutive\, asthmatic boy grew up with a persistent sense of yearning—for food\, for acceptance\, for words—desires that would follow him into adulthood. By the late 1970s\, world events changed Igor’s life. Jimmy Carter and Leonid Brezhnev made a deal: exchange grain for the safe passage of Soviet Jews to America—a country Igor viewed as the enemy. Along the way\, Igor became Gary so that he would suffer one or two fewer beatings from other kids. Coming to the United States from the Soviet Union was equivalent to stumbling off a monochromatic cliff and landing in a pool of pure Technicolor. Swinging between a Soviet home life and American aspirations\, Shteyngart found himself living in two contradictory worlds\, all the while wishing that he could find a real home in one. Provocative\, hilarious\, and inventive\, Little Failure reveals a deeper vein of emotion in Gary Shteyngart’s prose. It is a memoir of an immigrant family coming to America\, as told by a lifelong misfit who forged from his imagination an essential literary voice and\, against all odds\, a place in the world. \n
