The Parkland Village Book Club is a small group of us that meet every other month to discuss an interesting book that one of us has recommended. This book club is open to members and volunteers and we invite you to join us. You can come to a meeting for a specific book or you can join us each time and read whatever is recommended. The book we are reading for our December book discussion is Albuerquerque by Rudolpho Anaya.
World Literature Today (from the Goodreads website) says:
Alburquerque portrays a quest for knowledge. . . . [It] is a novel about many cultures intersecting at an urban, power-, and politics-filled crossroads, represented by a powerful white businessman, whose mother just happens to be a Jew who has hidden her Jewishness, . . . and a boy from the barrio who fathers a child raised in the barrio but who eventually goes on to a triumphant assertion of his cross-cultural self."--World Literature Today
