During this OMAM Art Book Club happy hour gathering, we'll discuss The Lacuna by Barbara Kingsolver, a historical fiction novel about a man torn between his American birth and Mexican upbringing, as he navigates the 20th century's political turmoil, including his time with artists Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo, and the rise of McCarthyism in the U.S. Told through his journals, the book explores themes of identity, art, revolution, and the gap between public perception and truth. Karen Pillar will lead our group discussion!
