The 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.
