Come Join Us for the Colbern Road Evening Book Club!

October 19, 2012

This month the Colbern Road Evening Book Club will be discussing The Red Garden by Alice Hoffman. Join us Wednesday, October 24th at 7:00 p.m. to discuss this riveting fantasy.

Set in Blackwell, Massachusetts, The Red Garden brings together the lives of those who live near it, and gives us glimpses into the ways in which it plays a part in their stories. Over a span of 300 years, Hoffman takes us from the very beginnings of Blackwell to modern day and allows us to see the mystery surrounding the garden. From the town founder, a brave and industrious young woman, to a poet who falls in love with a blind man, Hoffman’s characters look to find life’s truths within the red garden.

This vivid, moving novel takes you beneath the surface and into a wonderland. Read The Red Garden and learn a bit about yourself along the way.
