FOR A SPECIAL LECTURE, ON THE

Concert and Champagne

Sunday, January 29 at 3:00 pm 

 

 

St. Paul's Book Group

Our February discussion will be about the mystery,

The Rule of Four  by Ian Caldwell:

 

Princeton. Good Friday, 1999. On the eve of graduation, two friends are a hairsbreadth from solving the mysteries of the Hypnerotomachia Poliphili, a Renaissance text that has baffled scholars for centuries. Famous for its hypnotic             power over those who study it, the five-hundred-year-old  Hypnerotomachia may finally reveal its secrets-to Tom
Sullivan, whose father was obsessed with the book, and Paul Harris, whose future depends on it. 

As the deadline looms, research has stalled-until a vital clue is unearthed: a long-lost diary that may prove to be the key to deciphering the ancient text. But when a longtime student of the book is murdered just hours later, a chilling cycle of deaths and revelations begins-one that will force Tom and Paul into a fiery drama, spun from a book whose power and meaning have long been misunderstood.

The Blue Bunny will have it in stock next week at our usual 20% discount or pick it up from your favorite provider or library. Find it at Amazon

All are welcome, especially if you haven't attended before. See Jen Luszcz if you have any questions or need a ride, mcgrath1975@hotmail.com or cell 617-803-6504.
 

Lent will be here before we know it!

Untangle a Murder Mystery

& learn about one of the deadliest killers of our time

 

Wednesday, February 8th, 7:00 p.m.   

 

St. Paul's Episcopal Church, Parish Hall 

 

59 Court Street, Dedham

 

Our evening will include a discussion with the author, Steve Kassels, M.D., who will be happy to answer questions relating to both the plot of his book as well as the issue of drug addiction and treatment

&

readings from select portions of the book by Andrea O'Connell, who provides the narration on the digital copy of the book available from audible.com.

 

Addiction on Trial sends a powerful message of societal discrimination toward drug addicts and explores common misperceptions about what drug addiction really is-a chronic illness requiring a similar treatment approach as other chronic diseases. Medical and behavioral aspects of addiction are woven into the intrigue of this thriller, which culminates in a riveting murder trial.

 

 

 

"Steven Kassels' gripping medico-legal thriller has equal parts education, suspense and pure fun. The problem of addiction ... touches all of us. And with his nuanced understanding of the complex issues involved in addiction... Dr. Kassels has produced a novel of great power, humanity and compassion."

- Lawrence Peltz, MD, author, The Mindful Path to Addiction Recovery

 

If you wish to read the book ahead of time, copies are available at Blue Bunny Bookstore at 20% off. Or, you may purchase a copy this evening. Dr. Kassel's is donating his royalties on all book sales to addiction treatment.
