We're delighted to host, Marie Botswick, and feature her latest uplifting and thought provoking work of historical fiction, The Book Club for Troublesome Women, at our Spring Literary Luncheon. The book is a work of historical fiction, exploring the lives of four housewives in the 1960s residing in suburban Virginia. By many accounts these women are living the American Dream, yet they have a yearning for "more". They start a book club - their first title is Betty Frieden's The Feminine Mystique. The book has each of them examining and questioning their own lives - their fears and dreams - and also seeking change to make their longings a reality. The cost is $65.00 which includes lunch, book and an opportunity to engage with Marie Botswick.
