Are you an avid or occasional reader who enjoys discussing a book once you have read it? If so, please consider joining other MVPers who will gather on Zoom to discuss Richard Powers’s Pulitzer Prize winning novel, The Overstory, on Tuesday, November 19 at 7:00pm. The Overstory is described on the author’s website as “a sweeping, impassioned work of activism and resistance that is also a stunning evocation of―and paean to―the natural world. From the roots to the crown and back to the seeds, Richard Powers’s twelfth novel unfolds in concentric rings of interlocking fables that range from antebellum New York to the late twentieth-century Timber Wars of the Pacific Northwest and beyond. There is a world alongside ours―vast, slow, interconnected, resourceful, magnificently inventive, and almost invisible to us. This is the story of a handful of people who learn how to see that world and who are drawn up into its unfolding catastrophe.” Check out, purchase, or borrow a copy of the book, start reading, and RSVP to Pastor Donna for the Zoom link.
