LWSB Book Club

Twelve members of the LWSB Book Club met via Zoom on Aug. 20 to discuss John Steinbeck’s “East of Eden.” The story enfolded the lives of two generations of an American family in California’s 1930s Salinas Valley. As a study of human nature, members of the Book Club discussed the character portrayals of good vs. evil, along with the observation that individuals, whoever they may be, can exercise power over their own lives if they so choose. The author was credited with having written a powerful story that was enjoyed by all of the readers.

The next Zoom virtual meeting of the LWSB Book Club will be on Thursday, Sept. 17, at 1 p.m. The book chosen for discussion will be “Grayson,” by Lynne Cox, an intriguing story about an encounter between a Seal Beach, California, swimmer and a baby whale, separated from his mother.

It is available through local libraries and Abebooks.com for $3.65 with free shipping.
