Flathead County Library Book Club meets the 2nd Tuesday, October 2011-June, 2012 at 5:00pm in the conference room of the Kalispell Flathead County Library
February 14 - Zipes, BROTHERS GRIMM: FROM ENCHANGED FORESTS TO THE MODERN WORLD
Zipes is probably the leading American authority on the fairy tale, which makes this new edition of his classic study of the Brothers Grimm (1988) especially welcome. He is concerned with both the artistry and the ideology of the tales.
March 13 - Mattison, BOOK BORROWERS
The pleasures, intimacies, tensions and failures of female friendship frame this subtle, psychologically rich novel, which chronicles the volatile relationship between two women and highlights issues of loyalty, sacrifice and guilt.
April 10 - Coelho, WITCH OF PORTOBELLO
Best-selling Coelho continues to transform his trademark combination of mysticism and storytelling into spellbinding examinations of the human soul, A bereaved lover attempts to chronicle the path followed by Athena, theWitch of Portobello Road.
May 8 - Schiff, CLEOPATRA: A LIFE
This is a new interpretation of the life of one of history’s most enduringly intriguing women. Rather than a devastatingly beautiful femme fatale, Cleopatra, according to Schiff, was a shrewd power broker who knew how to use her manifold gifts—wealth, power, and intelligence—to negotiate advantageous political deals and military alliances.
June 12 - Cather, MY ANTONIA
A favorite since it first appeared in 1918 Cather’s vivid portrayal of immigrant life on the American prairie during the nineteenth century,. The harsh—yet forgiving—land, the growth and maturity of Jim Burden, the narrator, the intriguing characters, and the force of Ántonia’s strength all combine to make this novel exceptional.
