JOIN OUR READING GROUP
2nd Thursday of each month 5-6 PM
Our book for April is "Lucy" by Ellen Feldman
"An utterly absorbing novel about a famous political marriage and an
epic infidelity.
On the eve of World War I, Assistant Secretary of
the Navy Franklin Delano Roosevelt, fiercely ambitious and still untouched by
polio, falls in love with his wife's social secretary, Lucy Mercer. Eleanor
stumbles on their letters and divorce is discussed, but honor and ambition win
out. Franklin promises he will never see Lucy again.
But Franklin and
Lucy do meet again, and again they fall in love. As he prepares to run for an
unprecedented third term and lead America into war, Franklin turns to Lucy for
the warmth and unconditional approval Eleanor is unable to give."
