SUMMARY:Evening Book Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Discuss great titles and make new friends! This month\, group 
 leader Corin Caliendo will lead a discussion of North Woods by Daniel 
 Mason. Copies will be available at the Circulation Desk for checkout prior 
 to this event.\n\nThis Month's Pick:\n\nThe Women by Kristin 
 Hannah\n\nWomen can be heroes. When twenty-year-old nursing student Frances 
 “Frankie” McGrath hears these words\, it is a revelation. Raised in the 
 sun-drenched\, idyllic world of Southern California and sheltered by her 
 conservative parents\, she has always prided herself on doing the right 
 thing. But in 1965\, the world is changing\, and she suddenly dares to 
 imagine a different future for herself. When her brother ships out to serve 
 in Vietnam\, she joins the Army Nurse Corps and follows his path.\n\nAs 
 green and inexperienced as the men sent to Vietnam to fight\, Frankie is 
 over-whelmed by the chaos and destruction of war. Each day is a gamble of 
 life and death\, hope and betrayal\; friendships run deep and can be 
 shattered in an instant. In war\, she meets―and becomes one of―the 
 lucky\, the brave\, the broken\, and the lost.\n\nBut war is just the 
 beginning for Frankie and her veteran friends. The real battle lies in 
 coming home to a changed and divided America\, to angry protesters\, and to 
 a country that wants to forget Vietnam.\n\nThe Women is the story of one 
 woman gone to war\, but it shines a light on all women who put themselves 
 in harm’s way and whose sacrifice and commitment to their country has too 
 often been forgotten. A novel about deep friendships and bold patriotism\, 
 The Women is a richly drawn story with a memorable heroine whose idealism 
 and courage under fire will come to define an era.\n\n(Description courtesy
