Event description

Each month we will explore and discuss a title that falls into one of the TPL Reading Challenge categories.

This month we will be discussing This Strange Eventful History - Claire Messud

Category Is – Family Saga

Inspired in part by long-ago stories from her own family's history, this masterful story follows the Cassars over seven decades (from 1940-2010), starting with patriarch Gaston and his wife Lucienne, whose myth of perfect love sustains them, and ending with Chloe, who believes telling her family's buried stories will bring them all peace.
