Christina Creveling will lead our final meeting for 2021 on December 5th. We will discuss So Many Beginnings [A Little Women Remix], by Bethany C. Morrow. Listen to her talk about her novel on NPR: https://www.npr.org/programs/weekend-edition-sunday/

AND, for those who want to “compare & contrast” with the original dramatizations of the story, by Louisa May Alcott, published in 1868/69, without re-reading it (it’s the holidays!), there are many choices. Here’s the one starring Katherine Hepburn: https://www.tcm.com/tcmdb/title/12690/little-women#overview

OR, if you want the 2019 version (directed by Greta Gerwig and featuring Winona Rider, who was nominated for an Oscar) for her role as Jo March: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3281548/

CODE SWITCH!

Here’s hoping So Many Beginnings will be featured on the big screen, too….
