Book Club - December

Please join our book club! You do not need to have finished the book to come but just be aware that we will likely discuss spoilers. Our December book will be The Murmur of the Bees by Sofia Segovia. The original book is written in Spanish and the English translation is by Simon Bruni. We will meet at Vegan Bistro where there are donuts, drinks, and hopefully Banh Mi sandwiches.

From a beguiling voice in Mexican fiction comes an astonishing novel--her first to be translated into English--about a mysterious child with the power to change a family's history in a country on the verge of revolution.
From the day that old Nana Reja found a baby abandoned under a bridge, the life of a small Mexican town forever changed. As he grows up, Simonopio becomes a cause for wonder to the Morales family, because when the uncannily gifted child closes his eyes, he can see what no one else can--visions of all that's yet to come, both beautiful and dangerous.
Set against the backdrop of the Mexican Revolution and the devastating influenza of 1918, The Murmur of Bees captures both the fate of a country in flux and the destiny of one family that has put their love, faith, and future in the unbelievable.
