SUMMARY:Book Club - The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy
DESCRIPTION:The God of Small Things is Arundhati Roy’s 1997 Booker Prize-winning debut novel\, a lyrical and complex family saga set in Kerala\, India\, that explores forbidden love\, casteism\, and the impact of colonialism through the story of fraternal twins Estha and Rahel. The non-linear narrative\, praised for its unique prose\, follows the twins as they reunite after 23 years and confront a tragic event from their childhood—the drowning of their cousin Sophie—which was shaped by the “Love Laws” that dictate who can love whom. The novel is known for its poetic language and its examination of how small events have profound\, lasting consequences.

SUMMARY:Book Club - My Father's Paradise by Ariel Sabar
DESCRIPTION:In a remote corner of the world\, forgotten for nearly three thousand years\, lived an enclave of Kurdish Jews so isolated that they still spoke Aramaic\, the language of Jesus. Mostly illiterate\, they were self-made mystics and gifted storytellers and humble peddlers who dwelt in harmony with their Muslim and Christian neighbors in the mountains of northern Iraq. To these descendants of the Lost Tribes of Israel\, Yona Sabar was born. \n  \nYona’s son Ariel grew up in Los Angeles\, where Yona had become an esteemed professor\, dedicating his career to preserving his people’s traditions. Ariel wanted nothing to do with his father’s strange immigrant heritage–until he had a son of his own. \n  \nAriel Sabar brings to life the ancient town of Zakho\, discovering his family’s place in the sweeping saga of Middle-Eastern history. This powerful book is an improbable story of tolerance and hope set in what today is the very center of the world’s attention.

SUMMARY:Book Club - The History of Love - by Nicole Krauss
DESCRIPTION:Leo Gursky taps his radiator each evening to let his upstairs neighbor know he’s still alive. But it wasn’t always like this: in the Polish village of his youth\, he fell in love and wrote a book…Sixty years later and half a world away\, fourteen-year-old Alma\, who was named after a character in that book\, undertakes an adventure to find her namesake and save her family. With virtuosic skill and soaring imaginative power\, Nicole Krauss gradually draws these stories together toward a climax of “extraordinary depth and beauty” (Newsday).
