New Book


This month our book club read The Miracles of Santo Fico by D.L. Smith.  It was a fun book to read.  It seems light and easy but brought up some pretty deep discussion.  Mark thought it should be made into a Coen Brothers film staring George Clooney and Katherine Zeta-Jones. There is a page of writing that is beautiful and has stuck with me.  If you read it notice the essay on butterflies on page 292-293.  One reviewer called it a "sweet and charming tale of ancient deceptions, diverted passions, and the regenerative power of love".  It is set in a little Italian village in Tuscany.
