SUMMARY:Marathon City: Book Club: "The Names" by Florence Knapp
DESCRIPTION:Join us and other book lovers for a discussion of a variety of books—new and old\, fiction and nonfiction! This July\, the group will discuss “The Names” by Florence Knapp. \nCan a name shape the course of a life? In the wake of a catastrophic storm\, Cora sets off with her nine-year-old daughter\, Maia\, to register the birth of her son. Her husband\, Gordon\, respected in the community but a controlling presence at home\, intends for her to follow a long-standing family tradition and name the baby after him. But when faced with the decision\, Cora hesitates… \nSpanning thirty-five years\, what follows are three alternate and alternating versions of their lives\, shaped by Cora’s last-minute choice of name. Full of hope\, this is the story of three names\, three versions of a life\, and the infinite possibilities that a single decision can spark. It is the story of one family and love’s endless capacity to endure\, no matter what fate has in store. \nEveryone is welcome to join the discussion. Stop by the library to check out a copy of the book. For more information\, call 715-443-2775.
