The Twilight Book Club reads "That Old Cape Magic"

Join us on Tuesday, May 4th at 6:30 PM as the Twilight Book club discusses Richard Russo's That Old Cape Magic, a book that explores how the threads of our carefully planned lives can become unwoven at the oddest moments ...

(From the Publisher's description) That Old Cape Magic is a novel of deep introspection and every family feeling imaginable, with a middle-aged man confronting his parents and their failed marriage, his own troubled one, his daughter’s new life and, finally, what it was he thought he wanted and what in fact he has. The storytelling is flawless throughout, moments of great comedy and even hilarity alternating with others of rueful understanding and heart-stopping sadness, and its ending is at once surprising, uplifting and unlike anything this Pulitzer Prize winner has ever written.

The Twilight Book Club meets on the first Tuesday of every month at the Lane Memorial Library, and is open to all. Contact Darrell Eifert at deifert(at)hampton.lib.nh.us, or call 926-3368 for more information.
