All members present participated in an active general discussion of the book.
Published by St. Martin’s Press in 2010, Moloka’i relates a true tale of extraordinary human drama in Hawaii. It is the story of a woman named Rachel, who was shadowed by disease, isolation, and tragedy, but it is also a story of joy, courage, and dignity. Hope and the strength of the human spirit shine through in the end.
Ten members attended the meeting held in the Fellowship Hall of Nacoochee Presbyterian Church on February 11, 2019.
The next meeting of the NPC Book Club will be on March 11, 2019, at 2:00 pm. It will feature a group discussion of The Story Teller’s Secret, by Sejal Badani. Karen Brown of NPC will serve as the discussion leader. For further information, contact Delene Lee at delenelee2014@gmail.com.
