Open Book Club: Olga Dies Dreaming

  • First United Methodist Church of Denton 201 South Locust Street Denton, TX, 76201 United States (map)

Open Book Club is a group of people from Open Worship and First United Methodist Church of Denton who cares deeply about people, justice, and seek to find truth in literature. We are currently reading with our co-facilitators, Pamela Sanders and Krystal Stroud, and meeting on Zoom. You don't need any qualifications to be part of this group, just an open mind and a love of stories. We meet every other week to discuss what we've read and how it's impacted us. May we be transformed by these stories together!

Our next book will be Olga Dies Dreaming by Xochitl Gonzalez. Here’s a little about the book:

Set against the backdrop of New York City in the months surrounding the most devastating hurricane in Puerto Rico’s history, this is a story that examines political corruption, familial strife, and the very notion of the American dream―all while asking what it really means to weather a storm.

We will discuss this novel over three gatherings, Monday nights July 25, August 8 & 22 at 8 pm to discuss on Zoom. At the first meeting, we'll be discussing pages 3-123. We look forward to gathering with you! Join our Facebook group to access Zoom links.
