SUMMARY:Evening Book Group October
DESCRIPTION:Join the fun in discussing Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus! \nChemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact\, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it’s the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific view of equality. 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.
