SUMMARY:Fireside Book Club - June
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Book Club!\nHosted by Fireside on the second Wednesday of the month.\nWe are an exploratory book club and aim to read many different genres. If you are looking to get out of your comfort zone\, stop on by and join in our discussion!\nOur Book Club Pick for the month is The Fish Can Sing by Halldór Laxness for the genre ‘classic literature’.\nAbout the Book:\nOne of the most beloved novels from the Nobel Prize winner\, a poignant coming-of-age tale marked with the peculiar Icelandic blend of light irony and dark humor. – With an introduction by Pulitzer Prize-winning author of A Thousand Acres.\nThe orphan Alfgrimur has spent an idyllic childhood sheltered in the simple turf cottage of a generous and eccentric elderly couple. Alfgrimur dreams only of becoming a fisherman like his adoptive grandfather\, until he meets Iceland’s biggest celebrity. The opera singer Gardar Holm’s international fame is a source of tremendous pride to tiny\, insecure Iceland\, though no one there has ever heard him sing.\nA mysterious man who mostly avoids his homeland and repeatedly fails to perform for his adoring countrymen\, Gardar takes a particular interest in Alfgrimur’s budding musical talent and urges him to seek out the world beyond the one he knows and loves. But as Alfgrimur discovers that Gardar is not what he seems\, he begins to confront the challenge of finding his own path without turning his back on where he came from.
