Would anyone want to join me in reading and discussing [View all]
The Master Butchers Singing Club by Louise Erdrich? I will be starting this book soon and if there are interested people to also read it and have a discussion, I invite you to join me. I will be reading it regardless of participation, but welcome people who would like to read it with me.

From the book jacket:
"Having survived World War I, Fidelis Waldvogel returns to his quiet German village and marries the pregnant widow of his best friend, killed in action. With a suitcase full of sausages and a master butcher's precious knife set, Fidelis sets out for America. In Argus, North Dakota, he builds a business, a home for his family -- which includes Eva and four sons -- and a singing club consisting of the best voices in town. When the Old World meets the New -- in the person of Delphine Watzka -- the great adventure of Fidelis's life begins. Delphine meets Eva and is enchanted. She meets Fidelis, and the ground trembles. These momentous encounters will determine the course of Delphine's life, and the trajectory of this brilliant novel."
