Those that joined us for our April Book & Bottle Monthly meeting cast their votes and chose Lost: Go Gentle by Maria Semple for our May read! This is a thrillery literary fiction that has been called an
exuberant and life-affirming novel.
We have paired it with a Cleto Chiarli ‘Centenario’ Lambrusco. A fun and tasty easy-drinking wine, this sparkling red has notes of raspberry and orange peel with a full-flavored candied tangy finish
Make plans to join us on May 26th at 6:00 PM to chat about the book and try the wine!
Here is a quick synopsis of the book:
“Adora Hazzard has it all figured out. A Stoic philosopher and divorcée, she lives a contented life on New York City’s Upper West Side. Having discovered that the secret to happiness is to desire only what you have, she’s applied this insight to blissful effect.
Soon, her ordered world is upended by black-market art deals, secret rendezvous, and international intrigue . . . and her past—which she has worked so hard to bury—lands like a bomb in her present. Inflamed by unquenchable desire, Adora finds herself a woman wanting more: and she’ll risk everything to get it.”
The books are available in store now, and the wine and boxes will be ready for pick up next week!
