SUMMARY:Book Club - Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood by Trevor Noah
DESCRIPTION:Trevor Noah’s unlikely path from apartheid South Africa to the desk of The Daily Show began with a criminal act: his birth. Trevor was born to a white Swiss father and a black Xhosa mother at a time when such a union was punishable by five years in prison. Living proof of his parents’ indiscretion\, Trevor was kept mostly indoors for the earliest years of his life\, bound by the extreme measures his mother took to hide him from a government that could\, at any moment\, steal him away.  \nThe stories collected here are by turns hilarious\, dramatic\, and deeply affecting.They weave together to form a moving and searingly funny portrait of a boy making his way through a damaged world in a dangerous time\, armed only with a keen sense of humor and a mother’s unconventional\, unconditional love. \nContact Marjie Marion for the Zoom link in advance.

SUMMARY:Book Club - Ordinary Grace by William Kent Krueger
DESCRIPTION:New Bremen\, Minnesota\, 1961. It was the Twins’ debut season; the country had a new\, young president. But for thirteen-year-old Frank Drum it was a grim summer in which death visited often and took many forms. Accident. Nature. Suicide. Murder.

Forty years later\, he tells the story of discovering the terrible price of wisdom and the enduring grace of God. \nContact Marjie Marion for the Zoom link in advance.
