March Ladies Book Club - Martyr! (Kaveh Akbar)

We will have a picnic under the trees by the Roma Street Parkland Fountain at Roma Park. Bring a picnic rug, snacks, and anything else you would like at a picnic. If the weather is rainy, we will most likely meet at the Garden Room nearby, but will update the event closer to the date.

Genre for the month: Best of 2024

Blurb:
"Kaveh Akbar’s Martyr! is a paean to how we spend our lives seeking meaning—in faith, art, ourselves, others—in which a newly sober, orphaned son of Iranian immigrants, guided by the voices of artists, poets, and kings, embarks on a search that leads him to a terminally ill painter living out her final days in the Brooklyn Museum."
