The Arroyo Book Club pick for June…

Book Jacket for: In the garden of beasts : love, terror, and an American family in Hitler's BerlinThe Arroyo Book Club will be reading the book In the Garden of Beasts by Erik Larson for our June meeting.  This book is set in Berlin during Hitler’s rise to power.  It follows the lives of William E. Dodd, the United States’ Ambassador to Germany, and his family as they move from enjoying an exciting life in early 30’s Germany to the gradual realization that things are not as they seem.   Larson is noted for his ability to write exciting narrative non-fiction and this book is no exception. 

Stop by the library for a copy of the book and plan to join us for discussion on Saturday, June 22 at 3:00.
