About this event

Book Discussion: Book:

The Covenant of Water, by Abraham Verghese, the author of Cutting for Stone. Spanning the years 1900 to 1977, The Covenant of Water (724 pages so start soon!) is set in Kerala, on South India’s Malabar Coast, and follows three generations of a family. The family is part of a Christian community that traces itself to the time of the apostles, but times are shifting. A shimmering evocation of a lost India and of the passage of time itself, The Covenant of Water is a hymn to progress in medicine and to human understanding, and a humbling testament to the hardships undergone by past generations for the sake of those alive today.

Please note time change. Instead of 1:30 to 2:30, the book discussion group will meet from 1:00 to 2:00 so those returning home via HWY 1 S. won't have to deal with so much traffic. @ Java Junction, 519 Seabright Ave.
