SUMMARY:Evening Book Group October

Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely\, brilliant\, Nobel–prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with—of all things—her mind. True chemistry results. \nBooks are available in store at a 10% discount or online at Bookshop.org HERE. \nPlease call 508-949-6232 or email deb@bookloversgourmet.com to let us know you’re coming.

SUMMARY:Evening Book Group May
DESCRIPTION:  \nThis month’s pick is the memoir An Unfinished Love Story: A Personal History of the 1960s by Doris Kearns Goodwin\, one of America’s most beloved historians\, artfully weaves together biography\, memoir\, and history. She takes you along on the emotional journey she and her husband\, Richard (Dick) Goodwin\, embarked upon in the last years of his life. \nDick and Doris Goodwin were married for forty-two years and married to American history even longer. In his twenties\, Dick was one of the brilliant young men of John F. Kennedy’s New Frontier. In his thirties he both named and helped design Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society and was a speechwriter and close advisor to Robert Kennedy. Doris Kearns was a twenty-four-year-old graduate student when selected as a White House Fellow. She worked directly for Lyndon Johnson and later assisted on his memoir. \nOver the years\, with humor\, anger\, frustration\, and in the end\, a growing understanding\, Dick and Doris had argued over the achievements and failings of the leaders they served and observed\, debating the progress and unfinished promises of the country they both loved. \nBooks may be purchased in store for a 10% discount or online at Bookshop.org
