Our next book group meeting is Monday, November 28, 2011 at 6:30pm in the Turner Room. The book selection is Smilla's Sense of Snow by Peter Høeg. This novel is a cross between a mystery and adventure with a Danish twist. Smilla Qaavigaaq Jaspersen is torn between her Inuit roots and the demands of the modern Copenhagen world. When her 6-year old neighbor falls from an apartment roof to his death, Smilla doubts it was an accident. Her skills as a glaciologist and her gift of observation make it impossible for her to leave the investigation to the authorities. As she follows the path of secrets and intrigue she is lead back to her homeland, a treacherous of land of ice and snow. The book discussion guide is available in the library or online.
