DECEMBER BOOK
December's book will be The Story of a New Name by Elena Ferrante (https://www.amazon.com/Story-New-Name-Neapolitan-Novels/dp/1609451341). Join us at 7pm on the evening of Tuesday, Dec. 4 in the dining room of the Sylvia Hotel. (Yes, that's right, we've abandoned the lounge; the new live music format tends to overwhelm the conversation.) As always, new members are more than welcome.
Soon to be an HBO series, the follow-up to My Brilliant Friend in the New York Times bestselling Neapolitan quartet about two friends growing up in post-war Italy is a rich, intense, and generous-hearted family epic by Italy's most beloved and acclaimed writer, Elena Ferrante, "one of the great novelists of our time." (Roxana Robinson, The New York Times)
