What people are reading...
Betsey
Burn read Catherine the Great by Robert K
Massie. "Catherine, Empress of Russia, was born a German
princess and became ruler of
Russia
for thirty-five years.She
had one husband, twelve lovers, was the foremost art collector of
Europe, corresponded with Voltaire, and turned down a request (from
George III of England) to rent 20,000 soldiers to fight the American
colonists.If you are a history buff, you might enjoy this biography!"
Anne
read Brooklyn by Colm
Toibin. "I really enjoyed it. It's about an Irish girl coming to
Brooklyn, NY in the 1950s."
Jillian
read Hunger Games by
Suzanne Collins. "It's a sci-fi novel about community struggles
for liberation. A really captivating book."
Betsey Burn read Napoleon of New York
by H. Paul Jeffers.
Musician, linguist, crusader, showman, bully, censor: Fiorello
LaGuardia was all of these, and a whole lot more. He was Mayor
of New York for 11 turbulent years (1934-1945), spanning the
great depression of the 1930's and World War II. If you are
interested in the history of the city in a period of great
stress and vitality, or just in the biography of a flamboyant
personality who achieved much and alienated many, you might
enjoy Napoleon of New York, by H.
Paul Jeffers. Written in a plain-vanilla style that is easy
to follow, the book is illustrated with contemporary
photographs.
Susan Moore watched the movie Flow: How did a
handful of corporations steal our water? This feature length
documentary will leave you educated and angry about the take-over of
this precious resource. With segments and interviews from India to
Lesotho to Michigan, the film is consistently interesting and we
encounter water heroes and water villains. The title not only stands on
its own but is an acronym: For the love of water.
Kenny Bozek
watched the Blind Side, a true
story about a football player. His mother couldn't take care of him, so
a family took him in. It's a very moving story everyone should see.
