SUMMARY:Adult Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a discussion of “The Kite Runner” by Khaled Hosseini. This is from Amazon: \nTaking us from Afghanistan in the final days of its monarchy to the present\, The Kite Runner is the unforgettable and beautifully told story of the friendship between two boys growing up in Kabul. Raised in the same household and sharing the same wet nurse\, Amir and Hassan grow up in different worlds: Amir is the son of a prominent and wealthy man\, while Hassan\, the son of Amir’s father’s servant\, is a Hazara – a shunned ethnic minority. Their intertwined lives\, and their fates\, reflect the eventual tragedy of the world around them. When Amir and his father flee the country for a new life in California\, Amir thinks that he has escaped his past. And yet he cannot leave the memory of Hassan behind him. \nThe Kite Runner is a novel about friendship and betrayal\, and about the price of loyalty. It is about the bonds between fathers and sons\, and the power of fathers over sons – their love\, their sacrifices\, and their lies. Written against a backdrop of history that has not been told in fiction before\, The Kite Runner describes the rich culture and beauty of a land in the process of being destroyed. But through the devastation\, Khaled Hosseini offers hope for redemption.

SUMMARY:Adult Book Club
DESCRIPTION:“The World According to Color” by James Fox \nFrom Amazon: \nWe have an extraordinary connection to color―we give it meanings\, associations\, and properties that last millennia and span cultures\, continents\, and languages. In The World According to Color\, James Fox takes seven elemental colors―black\, red\, yellow\, blue\, white\, purple\, and green―and uncovers behind each a root idea\, based on visual resemblances and common symbolism throughout history. \nThrough a series of stories and vignettes\, the book then traces these meanings to show how they morphed and multiplied and\, ultimately\, how they reveal a great deal about the societies that produced them: reflecting and shaping their hopes\, fears\, prejudices\, and preoccupations. \nFox also examines the science of how our eyes and brains interpret light and color\, and shows how this is inherently linked with the meanings we give to hue. And using his background as an art historian\, he explores many of the milestones in the history of art―from Bronze Age gold-work to Turner\, Titian to Yves Klein―in a fresh way. Fox also weaves in literature\, philosophy\, cinema\, archaeology\, and art―moving from Monet to Marco Polo\, early Japanese ink artists to Shakespeare and Goethe to James Bond. \nBy creating a new history of color\, Fox reveals a new story about humans and our place in the universe: second only to language\, color is the greatest carrier of cultural meaning in our world.
