Book to Movie Night - The Dog Stars by Peter Heller
Advertisement
I'm trying something new!
Pick up your new copy of The Dog Stars by Peter Heller anytime after July 7th and read it before the movie comes out August 28th. Then watch the movie before we meet to discuss the book AND the movie on September 10th here at On The Side Books at 6pm!
This will be great for couples or friends and gives you lots of time to get the book read around summer activities and other book club selections. ;)
Here's more about The Dog Stars:
SOON TO BE A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE • NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the author of The River: In this "end-of-the-world novel more like a rapturous beginning" (San Francisco Chronicle), Hig somehow survived the flu pandemic that killed everyone he knows. His gripping story is "an ode to friendship between two men...the strong bond between a human and a dog, and a reminder of what is worth living for" (Minneapolis Star-Tribune).
Hig's wife is gone, his friends are dead, and he lives in the hangar of a small abandoned airport with his dog, Jasper, and a mercurial, gun-toting misanthrope named Bangley.
But when a random transmission beams through the radio of his 1956 Cessna, the voice ignites a hope deep inside him that a better life exists outside their tightly controlled perimeter. Risking everything, he flies past his point of no return and follows its static-broken trail, only to find something that is both better and worse than anything he could ever hope for.
