Brews & Bestsellers Book Club: Sparks Like Stars by Nadia Hashimi

Join our librarian for an adult evening out to chat about this month’s selection. Her prominent family’s only survivor, young Sitara barely escapes Afghanistan following the 1978 coup. A U.S. diplomat helps her relocate to the U.S. and eventually adopts her. This hauntingly beautiful story picks up later with Sitara (now Aryana) working in New York City as a surgical oncologist. She successfully suppresses the trauma of her youth until she encounters someone from her past. We will be meeting at Fino Ristorante Italiano, 1 Baltic Place, Croton on Hudson. Snacks will be provided, but you’ll be purchasing your own spirits of choice. Register and check out your copy of the book at our Circulation Desk at the library today. Ebook and audiobook available on Libby/Overdrive.
