Larkspur Book Club: The Lumberjack's Dove

“Serious art does not need to be weighty or explicitly topical. It can be, as it is here, apparently as light as a feather: The Lumberjack’s Dove is, in its manner, a folktale; it is also a meditation on attachment, on loss, on transformation." -Louise Glück

This installment of the Larkspur Book Club will meet Thursday, April 23rd, 2026 from 11am-12:30pm CST, and we will be reading the National Poetry Series Award Winning book, "The Lumberjack's Dove" by Gennarose Nethercott.

How it works: for each edition of our book club we’re going to select one book we enjoy that engages themes of death, grief, or nature. We’ll announce the selection and give you time to read it before we meet in-person at the Larkspur Library for an enriching discussion.

Participants will be responsible for purchasing their own copy of the book or borrowing from the Nashville Public Library prior to our event.
The first 30 minutes of book club will be for tea, snacks, and mingling, then we will get settled and dive into a 1hr discussion of the book! Registration for this book club will be extremely limited, so make sure you reserve your seat early!
