RESCHEDULED FOR MONDAY FEB. 20. SORRY FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE.

Please join us for the February edition of Paul's Book Club, led by Paul Ingram. This month Paul will host a discussion of The Story of Lucy Gault by William Trevor. The novel focuses on the Gault family who lead a life of privilege in early 1920s Ireland until the threat of violence leads the parents of nine-year-old Lucy to decide to leave for England, her mother's home. Lucy cannot bear the thought of leaving Lahardane, their country house with its beautiful land and nearby beach, and a dog she has befriended. On the day before they are to leave, Lucy runs away, hoping to convince her parents to stay. Instead, she sets off a series of tragic misunderstandings that affect all of Lahardane's inhabitants for the rest of their lives.

William Trevor is an Irish author and playwright. He is considered one of the elder statesmen of the Irish literary world and widely regarded as the greatest contemporary writers of short stories in the English language.
