To explore new ideas through books. To meet new people and try new things. Our special book clubs feature speakers and topics paired with titles written by alumni. The Summer Book Club will meet roughly once a month. You will read the book and come to the meet-up location to discuss and review.
July Meet-Up:“Flash Back: A Novel (Fountain of Life Book One)” previously titled: “Regeneration X” by alumna Ellison Blackburn
July 31
6-8 p.m.
Star Lounge Coffee Bar
2521 W. Chicago Ave.
In the not-too-distant future, a bioengineering, medical technology breakthrough—touted as the modern-day fountain of youth—means a redo of the past is not only conceivable, it is possible. The stuff of science fiction without the time machine, Renovation is a cosmetic procedure with hindsight built in–and Charlotte Rhys Fenn longs for a second crank at her life. On the verge of depression, forlorn with the machinations of the world, if nothing else, a do-over could shine a spark of light through the doldrums of Charley’s middle age. Another past must lead to a different future.
