The Arroyo Book Club’s selection for our September read is Cloud Cuckoo Land by Anthony Doerr. The New York Times Book review says this novel is a "wildly inventive, a humane and uplifting book for adults that's infused with the magic of childhood reading experiences." The book’s summary begins:
Set in Constantinople in the fifteenth century, in a small town in present-day Idaho, and on an interstellar ship decades from now, Anthony Doerr’s gorgeous third novel is a triumph of imagination and compassion, a soaring story about children on the cusp of adulthood in worlds in peril, who find resilience, hope—and a book.
There will be copies of the book available at the library in the usual location (just ask staff if you don’t know where that is). There are plenty of copies available in Libby if you would rather read the ebook version. Find it here.
We will meet to discuss the book on September 23 at 3:00. If you can’t join us in person but would like to follow along remotely please send an email to ayosco@lapl.org so we can add you to the link list.
