SUMMARY:Literary Libations | October Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join fellow book lovers for Literary Libations\, a free monthly book club hosted in the Parlor Room at The Study at Morrison House. Taking place one Wednesday each month\, this gathering offers a relaxed and welcoming space to dive into your next read—whether it’s a timeless classic\, a trending release\, or the latest must-read from BookTok. \nSip on themed cocktails and mocktails inspired by the book of the month\, pair them with small plates from The Study’s bar menu\, or linger after the discussion to indulge in a seasonal tasting menu. \nLiterary Libations isn’t a formal\, structured discussion—it’s a cozy salon for mingling\, exchanging ideas\, and diving into new worlds together. Conversation starters and thoughtful prompts will be scattered around the room\, but the conversation is all yours to shape. \nBOOK OF THE MONTH: North Woods by Daniel Mason\nA sweeping novel about a single house in the woods of New England\, told through the lives of those who inhabit it across the centuries—a daring\, moving tale of memory and fate from the Pulitzer Prize finalist and author of The Piano Tuner and The Winter Soldier.When a pair of young lovers abscond from a Puritan colony\, little do they know that their humble cabin in the woods will become home to an extraordinary succession of inhabitants . An English soldier\, destined for glory\, abandons the battlefields of the New World to devote himself to apples. A pair of spinster twins survive war and famine\, only to succumb to envy and desire. A crime reporter unearths a mass grave\, but finds the ancient trees refuse to give up their secrets. A lovelorn painter\, a conman\, a stalking panther\, a lusty beetle; as each one confronts the mysteries of the north woods\, they come to realize that the dark\, raucous\, beautiful past is very much alive.Traversing cycles of history\, nature\, and even literature\, North Woods shows the myriad\, magical ways in which we’re connected to our environment and to one another\, across time\, language and space. Written along with the seasons and divided into the twelve months of the year\, it is an unforgettable novel about secrets and fates that asks the timeless how do we live on\, even after we’re gone?
