SUMMARY:CBI Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Our next meeting of the CBI Book Club\, facilitated by Dr. Suzanne Levy Graver\, Professor Emerita at Williams College\, will meet in-person at a private home in Williamstown to discuss Can’t We Talk About Something More Pleasant? by Roz Chast. \nIn her multi-award-winning first memoir\, Chast – a New Yorker cartoonist – brings her signature wit to the universal topic of aging parents while shining a light on one family’s endearing peculiarities. Spanning the last several years of their lives and told through four-color cartoons\, family photos\, documents\, and a narrative as rife with laughs as it is with tears\, Chast’s memoir is both heart-wrenching and hilarious. \nFollowing the book’s release\, Can’t We Talk about Something More Pleasant? became a #1 New York Times Bestseller and a 2014 National Book Award Finalist\, as well as the winner of the inaugural 2014 Kirkus Prize in nonfiction\, the National Book Critics Circle Award\, the 2014 Books for a Better Life Award\, and the 2015 Reuben Award from National Cartoonists Society. \nAll are welcome! This book is available to purchase online in multiple formats. Those who plan on joining us should RSVP via our website; location information will be sent to all who RSVP once the date gets closer.
