January Book Club Pick: Still Life with Bread Crumbs

stilllifewithbreadcrumbsThe Hudson Area Library Book Group has chosen to read Still Life With Bread Crumbs by Anna Quindlen for their January meeting. Discussion will be held at the library on Thursday, January 22 at 3:30pm. Stop by the Hudson Area Library or call 828-1792 to order a copy of the book.

Still Life with Bread Crumbs begins with an imagined gunshot and ends with a new tin roof. Between the two is a wry and knowing portrait of Rebecca Winter, a photographer whose work made her an unlikely heroine for many women. Her career is now descendent, her bank balance shaky, and she has fled the city for the middle of nowhere. There she discovers, in a tree stand with a roofer named Jim Bates, that what she sees through a camera lens is not all there is to life.

All are welcome! Contact the library at 518-828-1792 or email Sharon Getty at BookGroup@hudsonarealibrary.org for info.
