Asymmetry by Lisa Halliday -- June 3, 2019



Unfortunately, Maria Rodriguez had a family crisis and was not able to come and lead the discussion on Asymmetry, at The Pancake House, in Stony Point. She was kind enough to buy us appetizers, AND to leave us yummy Rockland Bakery desserts, as well as leaving us questions to guide us through our last meeting of our TENTH YEAR!! Yay us!

It was wonderful to have a small group meet and discuss Maria's choice. We talked about the characters in the first section the most - Alice, and Ezra - who was modeled after Philip Roth. Many of us did not see much of a connection between the three sections. Asymmetry dealt with race, gender, nationality, and power.

Thank you to everyone who attended, and looking forward to year 11!

I'd like to help someone else in the book club take over the blogging end of things, so think about if it's something maybe YOU can do going forward. This is the year I can be there to help. After ten years, I'm ready to retire from this job. Please, someone, step up!
