From the moment it opens—on a rocky patch of Italian
coastline, circa 1962, when a daydreaming young innkeeper looks out over the
water and spies a mysterious woman approaching him on a boat—Jess
Walter's Beautiful Ruins is a dazzling, yet deeply human, roller
coaster of a novel. From the lavish set of Cleopatra to the shabby revelry of the Edinburgh Fringe
Festival, to the back lots of contemporary Hollywood, this is an inventive and
constantly surprising story of flawed yet fascinating people navigating the
rocky shores of their lives while clinging to their improbable dreams.
Meetings are the 3rd Tuesday of the month at 7:00 pm
Please pre-register by calling 419-586-4442 or
