Book Club: Commonwealth by Ann Patchett, Monday, Sept 11 at 7pm
Copies available at the Front Desk. Read the story of how an unexpected romantic encounter irrevocably changes 2 families’ lives.
One Sunday afternoon, Bert Cousins shows up at Franny Keating’s christening party uninvited. Before evening falls, he’s kissed Franny’s mother, Beverly—setting in motion the dissolution of their marriages & the joining of 2 families. Spanning 5 decades, Commonwealth explores how this chance encounter reverberates through the lives of the parents & children involved. Spending summers together in Virginia, the children forge a lasting bond that is based on a shared disillusionment with their parents & the strange & genuine affection that grows up between them. When their childhood becomes the basis for a wildly successful book,  they are forced to come to terms with their losses, their guilt & connection they feel for one another.  Commonwealth is a  tender tale of the far-reaching ties of love & responsibility that bind us together.
