Check out this link to an interview with Harry Bernstein.
Hello!
I think the discussion on The Invisible Wall went really well the other night. We ended up talking a lot about religion and prejudice and what it feels like to be considered less than because you are "different." I think many of us shared the same feelings of shock when the advice to get Lily to not date Arthur was to beat her - break every bone in her body the relatives in America suggested! When she followed through and actually married a Christian, her family sat Shiva for her, another idea the group had a hard time grasping. Her mother did concede and forgive her when she gave her a grandson. The story of Harry continues in his next memoir, The Dream which you can get through the minuteman system. I am sure it is just as compelling as his first book.
Now we are moving on to Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn for October. Gillian Flynn exploded onto the literary scene with Gone Girl, her 3rd book. She had already written Sharp Objects and Dark Places. Since I like to do something a little spooky or dark in October, I thought it would be fun to explore one of her earlier books that did not get the attention Gone Girl did.
