Our book for May 14 was A Replacement Life by Boris Fishman hosted by Ellie Adelman. This debut novel by a young Russian American author is about Russia and Russian-ness and America and American-ness, about the relationship between the generations, history, atonement, fact, fiction, biography, literature and the process of writing. It is deliciously smart, full of irony and sparked a great discussion.
This was the last meeting of a most interesting year; any suggestions for next year should be sent to Sandy Epstein. The Co-Ed Book Group would like to thank Sandy for all the time and effort she put in to make the group the success that it is.
