November’s book is “Lincoln in the Bardo” by George Saunders.  A National Book Award Finalist and NY Times bestseller, it’s a look at Lincoln like no other; mourning the death of his beloved son Willie, and spending a night visiting with old ghosts both recently and long ago departed.  All of these ghosts have unique voices, and something to say to old Abe.  And it’s likely they’ll have something to say to us.   We’ll meet at the Midtown Scholar at 2:00 in the lobby – look for folks carrying copies of the books; then we’ll find a table in the back room.  Please contact Joe Foner at joefoner1@gmail.com to RSVP or for questions.  Hope to see you there, and happy reading!
