Join us offsite for this new book group, aimed at people in their 20's & 30's (and the young at heart). We'll grab a table at Trinktisch, order a drink and snack if you're so inclined, and settle in to talk books!

Our March title is Ceremony by Leslie Marmon Silko. Read on a for a brief description...

The great Native American Novel of a battered veteran returning home to heal his mind and spirit.
More than thirty-five years since its original publication, Ceremony remains one of the most profound and moving works of Native American literature, a novel that is itself a ceremony of healing. Tayo, a World War II veteran of mixed ancestry, returns to the Laguna Pueblo Reservation. He is deeply scarred by his experience as a prisoner of the Japanese and further wounded by the rejection he encounters from his people. Only by immersing himself in the Indian past can he begin to regain the peace that was taken from him. Masterfully written, filled with the somber majesty of Pueblo myth, Ceremony is a work of enduring power.
