SUMMARY:Mystery Book Discussion - The One Eyed Judge by Michael Ponsor
DESCRIPTION:“When FBI agents barge into Sidney Cranmer’s home accusing him of a heinous crime\, the respected literature professor’s life becomes a nightmare. Cranmer insists the illicit material found by the agents isn’t his\, but the charge against him appears airtight\, and his academic specialty–the life and work of controversial author Lewis Carroll\, creator of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland–convinces investigators he’s lying. Presiding over the case against Professor Cranmer\, U.S. District Judge David Norcross fears his daily confrontation with evil has made him too jaded to become a husband and father. His girlfriend\, Claire Lindemann\, teaches in the same department as the defendant and is convinced of his innocence. Soon\, she will take matters into her own hands. Meanwhile–with his love life in turmoil and his plans for the future on hold–a personal tragedy leaves Norcross responsible for his two young nieces. Unbeknownst to him\, a vengeful child predator hovers over his new family\, preparing to strike. Fast-paced\, thrilling\, and thought-provoking\, this is legal fiction at its most realistic and compelling.”–provided by publisher. \nJoin us on the first Thursday of the month for a lively discussion of this month’s title and other of life’s mysteries. Copies of the book are usually available at the circulation desk or can be reserved online or by asking at the desk. This discussion also features cheese pizza while it lasts. Free and open to all.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Book Discussion - The Women in the Castle by Jessica Shattuck
DESCRIPTION:Three women\, haunted by the past and the secrets they hold Set at the end of World War II\, in a crumbling Bavarian castle that once played host to all of German high society\, a powerful and propulsive story of three widows whose lives and fates become intertwined–an affecting\, shocking\, and ultimately redemptive novel from the author of the New York Times Notable Book The Hazards of Good Breeding. Amid the ashes of Nazi Germany’s defeat\, Marianne von Lingenfels returns to the once-grand castle of her husband’s ancestors\, an imposing stone fortress now fallen into ruin following years of war. The widow of a resister murdered in the failed July 20\, 1944\, plot to assassinate Adolf Hitler\, Marianne plans to uphold the promise she made to her husband’s brave conspirators: to find and protect their wives\, her fellow resistance widows. First Marianne rescues six-year-old Martin\, the son of her dearest childhood friend\, from a Nazi reeducation home. Together\, they make their way across the smoldering wreckage of their homeland to Berlin\, where Martin’s mother\, the beautiful and naive Benita\, has fallen into the hands of occupying Red Army soldiers. Then she locates Ania\, another resister’s wife\, and her two boys\, now refugees languishing in one of the many camps that house the millions displaced by the war. As Marianne assembles this makeshift family from the ruins of her husband’s resistance movement\, she is certain their shared pain and circumstances will hold them together. But she quickly discovers that the black-and-white\, highly principled world of her privileged past has become infinitely more complicated\, filled with secrets and dark passions that threaten to tear them apart. Eventually\, all three women must come to terms with the choices that have defined their lives before\, during\, and after the war–each with their own unique share of challenges. \nThird Thursday is an informal group\, open to all\, no sign up necessary. Reserve your book at the adult circulation desk or online.
