September's Book Club selection is The House of Spirits by Isabel Allende. In one of the most important and beloved Latin American works of the twentieth century, Isabel Allende weaves a luminous tapestry of three generations of the Trueba family, revealing both triumphs and tragedies. Here is patriarch Esteban, whose wild desires and political machinations are tempered only by his love for his ethereal wife, Clara, a woman touched by an otherworldly hand. Their daughter, Blanca, whose forbidden love for a man Esteban has deemed unworthy infuriates her father, yet will produce his greatest joy: his granddaughter Alba, a beautiful, ambitious girl who will lead the family and their country into a revolutionary future.
If you so desire, feel free to bake or make a snack to share, or bring a bottle of wine or a blend of tea you would like others to try. Parking is anywhere on the street in front of the house. But if anyone has physical access issues, they can pull into the drive and park in the back and will be able to get into the house easily from there.
