Harvard Club of Cincinnati Book Club
http://harvard.cincyivy.org
Location: Bronte Bistro in Joseph Beth Bookstore (2692 Madison Road 45208)

Harvard alumni are invited to join the Harvard Club of Cincinnati Book Club for a discussion of "Work of Art" by Sinclair Lewis. In "Work of Art," three generations of the Weagle family grow up in and work for boarding houses, inns and hotels. The focus is on two brothers, Myron and Ora, of the second generation. Poetic, ethereal Ora could not wait to escape hotel drudgery, though never too proud to ask plodding Myron for money. Sinclair Lewis, as always, tells a great yarn, this time about the ups and downs in a rising America's unending pursuit of craftsmanship and material success. Awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1930 "for his vigorous and graphic art of description and his ability to create, with wit and humor, new types of characters," his works are known for their insightful and critical views of American capitalism and materialism between the wars. He is also respected for his strong characterizations of modern working women. For information about the Book Club, contact Steve Strauss at 513-321-0967 or <sdstrauss@earthlink.net>.
