As new neighbors and Dante's friends enter the mix, all their lives take surprising turns that raise questions about concepts of family, loyalty, and love. After the book talk, enjoy a light lunch and then two hours of open play of either canasta or mah jongg. Bring your own tiles, cards and foursomes! Fee is inclusive a table for four players, a book for each player and a light lunch. DEBRA GREEN FELDMAN is the author of Mahjong At Mara's (2024) and The Convention of Wives (2022).
