SUMMARY:Kay's Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Pumpkinflowers:  A Soldier’s Story of a Forgotten War by Matti Friedman \n  \nIt was just one small hilltop in a small\, unnamed war in the late 1990s\, but it would send out ripples that are still felt worldwide today. The hill\, in Lebanon\, was called the Pumpkin; flowers was the military code word for “casualties.” Award-winning writer Matti Friedman re-creates the harrowing experience of a band of young Israeli soldiers charged with holding this remote outpost\, a task that would change them forever\, wound the country in ways large and small\, and foreshadow the unwinnable conflicts the United States would soon confront in Afghanistan\, Iraq\, and elsewhere. \n“A top-notch account of this under-analyzed war\, persuasively arguing that it heralded a new style of combat in the Middle East\, though no one knew it at the time.”  (NYT)  \nZoom: Kay’s Book Club \nMeeting ID: 831 2499 2920 \nPasscode: 230927

SUMMARY:Kay's Book Club
DESCRIPTION:The Night Watchman is a novel by Louise Erdrich. \nBased on the extraordinary life of National Book Award-winning author Louise Erdrich’s grandfather who worked as a night watchman and carried the fight against Native dispossession from rural North Dakota all the way to Washington\, D.C.\, this powerful novel explores themes of love and death with lightness and gravity and unfolds with the elegant prose\, sly humor\, and depth of feeling of a master craftsman. \n“In this era of modern termination assailing us\, the book feels like a call to arms. A call to humanity”.  (NYT) \nIn 2021\, the novel was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction.\n\n  \nDue to local Jamesport events on 3/15/25 causing traffic snarls\, we will only have this session of Kay’s Book Club online.\n\n\nZoom:  Kay’s Book Club \nMeeting ID: 838 6542 7759 \nPasscode: 848625

SUMMARY:Meet The Author:  The Apothecary's Wife
DESCRIPTION:Join Karen Bloom Gevirtz (daughter of our members\, Susan and Steven Bloom) as she discusses her book\, The Apothecary’s Wife:  The Hidden History of Medicine and How It Became A Commodity.  This book was named by Kirkus Reviews as one of the best non-fiction books of 2024\, “A lively medical\, scientific\, and economic history.”\n \n  \nThe running joke in Europe for centuries was that anyone in a hurry to die should see a physician. And yet between 1650 and 1750\, doctors became the trusted medical authority and women\, who had treated the ill and injured for centuries\, became the unreliable\, even dangerous caregiver. The Apothecary’s Wife: The Hidden History of Medicine and How It Became a Commodity explains how this incredible reversal took place\, transforming medicine from household goods into something to be bought and sold – and sometimes priced out of reach. \n  \nKaren Bloom Gevirtz writes about the history of science. After 30 years as an English professor\, she left the academy and publishes for a general audience. The author of four books and the co-editor of one\, she is internationally recognized for her research and has been interviewed by the BBC\, Talk Radio Europe\, the Wall Street Journal\, and Huffpost.  She can be found at www.karenbloomgevirtz.com.
