SUMMARY:1:00 PM - Saturday - Book Club
DESCRIPTION:What: Memorial\nBy:  Bryan Washington\nWhere: Higland Park Library\nWhen: Dec. 18 at 1:00 PM \nContact Rick for details or to subscribe to book club notices by email here. \nBook Review: \n\n\n\nA funny\, sexy\, profound dramedy about two young people at a crossroads in their relationship and the limits of love. \nBenson and Mike are two young guys who live together in Houston. Mike is a Japanese American chef at a Mexican restaurant and Benson’s a Black day care teacher\, and they’ve been together for a few years — good years — but now they’re not sure why they’re still a couple. There’s the sex\, sure\, and the meals Mike cooks for Benson\, and\, well\, they love each other. \nBut when Mike finds out his estranged father is dying in Osaka just as his acerbic Japanese mother\, Mitsuko\, arrives in Texas for a visit\, Mike picks up and flies across the world to say goodbye. In Japan he undergoes an extraordinary transformation\, discovering the truth about his family and his past. Back home\, Mitsuko and Benson are stuck living together as unconventional roommates\, an absurd domestic situation that ends up meaning more to each of them than they ever could have predicted. Without Mike’s immediate pull\, Benson begins to push outwards\, realizing he might just know what he wants out of life and have the goods to get it. \n\n\n\nBoth men will change in ways that will either make them stronger together\, or fracture everything they’ve ever known. And just maybe they’ll all be okay in the end. Memorial is a funny and profound story about family in all its strange forms\, joyful and hard-won vulnerability\, becoming who you’re supposed to be\, and the limits of love. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNEW LOCATION: \nHighland Park Library – 1974 Ford Pkwy\, St Paul. First Floor Meeting Room\nMasks are required regardless of vaccination status. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:1:15 PM - Saturday - Book Club
DESCRIPTION:What: The Prophets\nBy: Robert Jones Jr.\nHost: Rick\nWhere: Zoom\nWhen: Apr. 17 at 1:15 PM \nContact Rick for details or to subscribe to book club notices by email here. \nBook Review: \n\n\n\nSamuel and Isaiah are young slaves on a big cotton plantation “known by its rightful name: Empty\,” and overseen by Paul Halifax and his wife\, Ruth. The two slaves have been lovers for a while\, stealing moments of tender passion in the hayloft of the barn where they care for farm animals. Other slaves know and don’t much care \nthat the two well-liked men are a couple. Amos\, a slave-preacher who’s been tutored in the Bible by the pious\, hypocritical Paul\, decides to condemn Samuel and Isaiah to his flock. When Paul and his overseer find out\, they devise a sadistic punishment for the lovers.” \n\n\n\n— from Claude Peck’s review in the Star Tribune\, Dec. 31\, 2020

SUMMARY:1:15 PM - Saturday - Book Club
DESCRIPTION:What: The Storm\nBy: Christopher Zyda\nHost: Rick\nWhere: Quatrefoil Library\nWhen: March 20th at 1:15 PM \nContact Rick for details or to subscribe to book club notices by email here. \n“Christopher Zyda confronts the long-buried and painful memories of his\nharrowing fifteen-year journey in The Storm: One Voice from the AIDS Generation\, a heart-wrenching love story and coming-of-age tale during\nthe early years of the AIDS crisis in Los Angeles. \nIt all begins in early 1984\, when Chris\, a twenty-one year old UCLA English Literature major\, risks ostracism when he comes out of the closet to his fraternity brothers just as the AIDS pandemic is beginning to explode in gay communities across the United States. Soon afterward\, Chris meets and falls in love with Stephen\, a graduate of Yale University and Law School\, and the two of them build a life together as their friends start to fall sick and die from the spreading\nstorm of AIDS. \nStephen begins showing symptoms of AIDS in early 1986\, and Chris faces a difficult choice as he is certain that he\, too\, eventually will be stricken by the disease. He abandons his writing career and attends the UCLA business school so that he can earn enough money to pay for healthcare during Stephen’s illness.” \nLambda Literary Review

SUMMARY:1:15 PM - Saturday - Book Club
DESCRIPTION:What: Swimming in the Dark\nBy: Tomasz Jedrowski\nHost: Rick\nWhere: Zoom\nWhen: Feb. 20 at 1:15 PM \nContact Rick for details or to subscribe to book club notices by email here. \nBook Review: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Imagine Call Me By Your Name set in Communist Poland and you’ll get a sense of \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJedrowski’s moving debut about a consuming love affair amidst a country being torn\napart.” — O\, The Oprah Magazine \n“Captivating both for its shimmering surfaces and its terrifying depths. Tomasz Jedrowski is a remarkable writer.” — Justin Torres\, bestselling author of We the Animals \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSet in early 1980s Poland against the violent decline of Communism\, a tender and passionate story of first love between two young men who eventually find themselves on \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nopposite sides of the political divide—a stunningly poetic and heartrending literary debut for fans of André Aciman\, Garth Greenwell\, and Alan Hollinghurst. \nWhen university student Ludwik meets Janusz \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nat a summer agricultural camp\, he is fascinated yet wary of this handsome\, carefree stranger. But a chance meeting by the river soon \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nbecomes an intense\, exhilarating\, and all- \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nconsuming affair. After their camp duties are fulfilled\, the pair spend a dreamlike few weeks \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nin the countryside\, bonding over an illicit copy of James Baldwin’s Giovanni’s Room. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInhabiting a beautiful\, natural world removed \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nfrom society and its constraints\, Ludwik and Janusz fall deeply in love. But in their repressive Communist and Catholic society\, \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nthe passion they share is utterly unthinkable. Once they return to Warsaw\, the charismatic \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJanusz quickly rises in the political ranks of the party and is rewarded with a highly coveted \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\ngovernment position. Ludwik is drawn toward \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nimpulsive acts of protest\, unable to ignore \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nrising food prices and the stark economic disparity around them. Their secret love and \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\npersonal and political differences slowly begin \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nto tear them apart as both men struggle to survive in a regime on the brink of collapse. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShifting from the intoxication of first love to the quiet melancholy of growing up and growing \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\napart\, Swimming in the Dark is a potent blend \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nof romance\, postwar politics\, intrigue\, and history. Lyrical and sensual\, immersive and \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nintense\, Tomasz Jedrowski’s indelible and \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nthought-provoking literary debut explores freedom and love in all its incarnations. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:1:15 PM - Saturday - Book Club
DESCRIPTION:What: How We Fight For Our Lives\nBy:  Saeed Jones\nHost: Rick\nWhere: Zoom\nWhen: Jan 16 at 1:15 PM \nContact Rick for details or to subscribe to book club notices by email here. \nBook Review: \n\n\n\nAs How We Fight for Our Lives is Saeed Jones’ biography\, it is a unique narrative of the events that shaped him. \nHowever\, it is also a story packed with elements that profoundly connect him to poetry\, to every black person that came before him in this country\, and to many of us who grew up dreaming of a chance at upward social mobility through education that we couldn’t afford. Extremely personal\, emotionally gritty\, and unabashedly honest\, How We Fight for Our Lives is an outstanding memoir that somehow manages a perfect balance between love and violence\, hope and hostility\, transformation\, and resentment. \n\n\n\nDespite the changing backgrounds\, the core of his life remained the same: his mother; his family; his passion for words; and his sexuality. Jones knew he was gay at an early age but finding himself and developing the strength to show his true self to the world took years. His memoir highlights that he was painfully aware of how discrimination\, homophobia\, and racism work in this country\, how they contaminate everything\, and that made him cognizant of the possible consequences of being an openly gay black man. The struggles that he faced and the journey he embarked on to find and (re)define his identity after every major change are the heart of this book. And it’s a wild heart full of need — and one desperate to communicate its humanity with the world.
