Book Club<br />
The Book Club meets the third Thursday at 2:00 p.m. in<br />
the <strong>Anthem</strong> Center. A different book, selected by a vote the<br />
members, is discussed each month. Completion of the<br />
month’s selection prior to the meeting is not a prerequisite for<br />
participation, Each meeting ends with member recommendations<br />
of movies currently playing or on videotape.<br />
The Book Club Selection for July will be Family Tree by<br />
Barbara Delinsky. Dana Clarke has<br />
always longed for the stability of<br />
home and family-her own childhood<br />
was not an easy one. Now she has<br />
married a man she adores who is<br />
from a prominent New England<br />
family, and she is about to give<br />
birth to their first child. But what<br />
should be the happiest day of her<br />
life becomes the day her world<br />
falls apart. Her daughter is born beautiful and<br />
healthy, but no one can help noticing the African American<br />
traits in her appearance. Dana’s husband, to her great shock<br />
and dismay, begins to worry that people will think Dana has<br />
had an affair.<br />
Dana’s determination to discover the truth becomes a<br />
poignant journey back through her past and her husband’s heritage<br />
that unearths secrets rooted in prejudice and fear.<br />
Barbara Delinsky’s Family Tree is an utterly unforgettable<br />
novel that asks penetrating questions about race, family, and<br />
the choices people make in times of crisis-choices that have<br />
profound consequences that can last for generations.<br />
