SUMMARY:Edith Wharton's The Custom of the Country
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! \nThis month’s novel is Edith Wharton\, The Custom of the Country. \nFirst published in 1913\, Edith Wharton’s The Custom Of The Country is scathing novel of ambition featuring one of the most ruthless heroines in literature. Undine Spragg is as unscrupulous as she is magnetically beautiful. Her rise to the top of New York’s high society from the nouveau riche provides a provocative commentary on the upwardly mobile and the aspirations that eventually cause their ruin. One of Wharton’s most acclaimed works\, The Custom Of The Country is a stunning indictment of materialism and misplaced values that is as powerful today for its astute observations about greed and power as when it was written nearly a century ago. \nWhen you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation.

SUMMARY:Questlove's Music Is History
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! \nThis month’s novel is Questlove’s Music Is History. \nMusic Is History combines Questlove’s deep musical expertise with his curiosity about history\, examining America over the past fifty years. \nFocusing on the years 1971 to the present\, Questlove finds the hidden connections in the American tapes- try\, whether investigating how the blaxploitation era reshaped Black identity or considering the way disco took an assembly-line approach to Black genius. And these critical inquiries are complemented by his own memories as a music fan\, and the way his appetite for pop culture taught him about America. \nA history of the last half-century and an intimate conversation with one of music’s most influential and original voices\, Music Is History is a singular look at contemporary America. \nWhen you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation.

SUMMARY:Emily St. John Mandel’s Station Eleven
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! \nThis month’s novel is NATIONAL BESTSELLER Emily St. John Mandel’s Station Eleven. \n\n\nAn audacious\, darkly glittering novel set in the eerie days of civilization’s collapse—the spellbinding story of a Hollywood star\, his would-be savior\, and a nomadic group of actors roaming the scattered outposts of the Great Lakes region\, risking everything for art and humanity. Now an original series on HBO Max. \nKirsten Raymonde will never forget the night Arthur Leander\, the famous Hollywood actor\, had a heart attack on stage during a production of King Lear. That was the night when a devastating flu pandemic arrived in the city\, and within weeks\, civilization as we know it came to an end. \nWhen you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation.

SUMMARY:Ian McEwan's Atonement
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! \nThis month’s novel is Ian McEwan’s Atonement. \n\n\nThis month’s novel is NATIONAL BESTSELLER Ian McEwan’s Atonement. \nA symphonic novel of love and war\, childhood and class\, guilt and forgiveness that provides all the satisfaction of a brilliant narrative and the provocation we have come to expect from the acclaimed Booker Prize–winning\, international bestselling author Ian McEwan. \nOn a hot summer day in 1935\, thirteen-year-old Briony Tallis witnesses a moment’s flirtation between her older sister\, Cecilia\, and Robbie Turner\, the son of a servant and Cecilia’s childhood friend. But Briony’ s incomplete grasp of adult motives—together with her precocious literary gifts—brings about a crime that will change all their lives. \n“A beautiful and majestic fictional panorama.” —John Updike\, The New Yorker \nWhen you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation.
