Book Discussion on The Feast of Love at Crest Hill Branch Library

Join the Crest Hill book group as we discuss The Feast of Love by Charles Baxter. Considered a re-imagined A Midsummer Night's Dream in vignettes both comic and sexy, men and women speak of and desire their ideal mates: The owner of a coffee shop recalls the day his first wife seemed to achieve a moment of simple perfection; a young couple spends hours at the coffee shop fueling the idea of their fierce love; a professor of philosophy, stopping by for a cup of coffee, makes a valiant attempt to explain what he knows to be the inexplicable working of the human heart. Their voices resonate with each other and come together in a tapestry that depicts the most irresistible arena of life. Copies of the books will be available at the Adult Services desk beginning May 20th.
