Presented by Marin County Free Library

Everyone is welcome to join our online (Zoom) book discussion group on Wednesday November 13, 2024.

We will be discussing our selection: Honeydew by Edith Pearlman

Honeydew
is Edith Pearlman's first new collection of stories since the National Book Critics' Circle Award-winning Binocular Vision, which brought her to rapturous acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic, and at one stroke established her as 'the equal of Updike or Munro'. The stories in Honeydew are unmistakably by Pearlman: they are stories that are novels in miniature; whole lives in ten pages. They are minutely observant of people, of their foibles and failings, but also of their moments of kindness and truth.
