The CAA Book Club – You’re Invited!
Sunday, May 18th at 10:15am

The CAA Book Club will next meet on Sunday, May 18, 2025. We’ll be discussing two short stories. One is “Act of Faith” by Irwin Shaw, which takes place shortly after VE-Day in France. The other is “The Lady of the Lake” by Bernard Malamud, a tale about identity, focusing on a young American in Italy in the early nineteen-fifties. CLICK HERE to access the stories electronically.

Alternatively, several printouts are available at the CAA office. The stories can also be found at the Keene Public Library in Irwin Shaw Short Stories, Five Decades and The Magic Barrel by Bernard Malamud.

We gather at CAA at about 10:15 a.m. for bagels and coffee and start the discussion at 10:30. Hope you’ll be able to join us!
