Thursday, April 27, 2023 - 6:30PM to 8:00PM EST
Their fourth NHC Book Club in 2023 will be Part 1 of The Heart's Invisible Furies by John Boyne, available at The Lahaska Bookshop.
Cyril Avery is not a real Avery -- or at least, that's what his adoptive parents tell him. And he never will be. But if he isn't a real Avery, then who is he? Born out of wedlock to a teenage girl cast out from her rural Irish community and adopted by a well-to-do, if eccentric Dublin couple via the intervention of a hunchbacked Redemptorist nun, Cyril is adrift in the world, anchored only tenuously by his heartfelt friendship with the infinitely more glamourous and dangerous Julian Woodbead. At the mercy of fortune and coincidence, he will spend a lifetime coming to know himself and where he came from - and over his many years, will struggle to discover an identity, a home, a country, and much more.
They'll discuss this book on Thursday, April 27, at 6:30 pm at Lambertville House. If you can't come this time, make sure you read Part 2 of The Heart's Invisible Furies by John Boyne for next month.
