Divisadero

On June 22, we met at Lovejoy's Tea Room in San Francisco to discuss Divisadero by Michael Ondaatje, author of The English Patient (which is how you describe him when you are afraid to pronounce his name wrong). While we all agreed the book was beautifully written, the "divided" aspect of it made the book rather frustrating... Most of us wished we could find out what happened to Anna, Claire and Coop (the storyline from the first half of the book that was never resolved). Debbie brought some excellent discussions questions to guide us, which made for a great discussion.

We also enjoyed a lovely spread of teas, sandwiches and warm scones -- yum!
