Greendale READS Spring 2011 - "The History of Love"

Dr. Edwin Block from Marquette University will lead our Spring 2011 book discussion of "The History of Love," by Nicole Krauss.  Dr. Block is a professor of English at Marquette.  "The History of Love" is a novel spanning a period of more than 60 years, from Nazi-occupied Europe to present-day Brighton Beach.  The lives of the two main characters -- Leo, who escaped SS officers in his native Poland, and Alma, a 14-year-old dealing with a depressed mother -- are woven together in incredibly complex ways.  Please register in advance: in-person at the Library, by phone or e-mail.
