SUMMARY:Brown Bag Talking Book Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Brown Bag Talking Book Discussion\nThe group discusses two audiobooks each month. Listen to all\, one\, or even none… everyone is welcome! \nMeet in person or join in remotely. \nTo join remotely by phone\, please Call: 267-807-9601 and use Access Code: 965803\, or join virtually by visiting bit.ly/TCLbtbcall \n  \nTitles are voted on 3 months in advance. This month’s titles: \n  \nThe Librarianist by Patrick deWitt\nDB 116100\n10 hours\, 6 minutes. General Fiction.\nBob Comet is a retired librarian passing his solitary days surrounded by books and small comforts in a mint-colored house in Portland\, Oregon. One morning on his daily walk he encounters a confused elderly woman lost in a market and returns her to the senior center that is her home. Hoping to fill the void he’s known since retiring\, he begins volunteering at the center. Here\, as a community of strange peers gathers around Bob\, and following a happenstance brush with a painful complication from his past\, the events of his life and the details of his character are revealed. Behind Bob Comet’s straight-man facade is the story of an unhappy child’s runaway adventure during the last days of the Second World War\, of true love won and stolen away\, of the purpose and pride found in the librarian’s vocation\, and of the pleasures of a life lived to the side of the masses. Bob’s experiences are imbued with melancholy but also a bright\, sustained comedy; he has a talent for locating bizarre and outsize players to welcome onto the stage of his life. \nWeyward by Emilia Hart\nDB 113239\n10 hours\, 55 minutes. Historical Fiction\nThree women. Five centuries. One secret. ‘I had nature in my heart\, she said. Like she did\, and her mother before her. There was something about us – the Weyward women – that bonded us more tightly with the natural world. We can feel it\, she said\, the same way we feel rage\, sorrow or joy.’ In 2019\, Kate flees an abusive relationship in London for Crows Beck\, a remote Cumbrian village. Her destination is Weyward Cottage\, inherited from her great Aunt Violet\, an eccentric entomologist. As Kate struggles with the trauma of her past\, she uncovers a secret about the women in her family. A secret dating back to 1619\, when her ancestor Altha Weyward was put on trial for witchcraft…. Weyward is a stunning debut novel about gender and control – about the long echoes of male violence through the centuries. But more than that\, it is a celebration of nature\, female power and breaking free. \n  \n  \n  \nNew attendees: Please call the library or click on the covers above to place copies on hold. Or current BTB members can use the Talking Book Order Form to have copies sent on cartridge.

This month’s titles: \n  \nTwas the Bite Before Christmas by David Rosenfelt\nDB 116950\n6 hours\, 37 minutes.\nSuspense Fiction\, Mystery and Detective Stories\, Animals and Wildlife.\nReluctant lawyer Andy Carpenter is at the Tara Foundation’s annual Christmas party. The dog rescue organization has always been his true calling\, and this is one holiday tradition he can get behind because every dog that’s come through the rescue—and their families—are invited to celebrate. This year’s party is no exception. But before the stockings can be hung by the chimney with care\, homicide detectives ruin the evening. Derek Moore\, one of the foundation’s best foster volunteers\, is arrested for murder. Andy discovers Derek—whose real name is Bobby—is in the witness protection program after giving evidence against his former gang. The police believe Bobby murdered a member. But Bobby swears to Andy he didn’t do this. He’s built a new life\, a new business\, has two new dogs after being a double foster-failure. There isn’t much Andy likes about this case\, but he likes Bobby. If he’s innocent\, Andy wants to help. Before Andy can settle down for his long winter’s nap\, he has a client’s name to clear\, a murderer to catch\, and two new dogs to look after: a golden and a Dalmatian. Andy’s golden retriever\, Tara\, will have to adjust to not being the only golden at the house while Andy gets to the bottom of this one… \nThe Guest by Emma Cline\nDB 114407\n8 hours\, 39 minutes. Psychological Fiction.\nSummer is coming to a close on the East End of Long Island\, and Alex is no longer welcome. A misstep at a dinner party\, and the older man she’s been staying with dismisses her with a ride to the train station and a ticket back to the city. With few resources and a waterlogged phone\, but gifted with an ability to navigate the desires of others\, Alex stays on Long Island and drifts like a ghost through the hedged lanes\, gated driveways\, and sun-blasted dunes of a rarefied world that is\, at first\, closed to her. Propelled by desperation and a mutable sense of morality\, she spends the week leading up to Labor Day moving from one place to the next\, a cipher leaving destruction in her wake. \n  \n  \n  \nNew attendees: Please call the library or click on the covers above to place copies on hold.
