Adult Book Club Discussion
Bookshop of the Broken Hearted by Robert Hillman
Please join us for one of our meetings of our Adult Book Club scheduled for Tuesday, June 10, at 1:00 pm and Friday, June 13, at 1:30 pm. We will be discussing the book "Bookshop of the Broken Hearted" by Robert Hillman.
It is 1968 in rural Australia and lonely Tom Hope can't make heads or tails of Hannah Babel. Newly arrived from Hungary, Hannah is unlike anyone he's ever met--she's passionate, artistic, and fiercely determined to open sleepy Hometown's first bookshop. Despite the fact that Tom has only read only one book in his life, the two soon discover an astonishing spark. Recently abandoned by an unfaithful wife--and still missing her sweet son, Peter--Tom dares to believe that he might make Hannah happy. But Hannah is a haunted woman. Twenty-four years earlier, she had been marched to the gates of Auschwitz.
Copies of the book are available for checkout at the library.
