historical detail and unexpected turns. . . . Water for Elephants is a rich surprise, a delightful gem
springing from a fascinating footnote to history that absolutely deserved to be mined.”   We will meet at

unlikely allegiances that form in extreme circumstances. … One approaches the final pages with a
heavy heart for several reasons, not the least of which being that this fine read has come to an end.”

Kingsolver, and will meet at the home of Bob DeHoff, 4501 Dorset Ave., Lisle, IL, (630) 969-1370.  The
Lacuna is a sweeping mural of sensory delights and stimulating ideas about art, government, identity
and history. The New York Times Book Review wrote, “Breathtaking...dazzling...The Lacuna can be
enjoyed sheerly for the music of its passages on nature, archaeology, food and friendship; or for its
portraits of real and invented people...But the fuller value...lies in its call to conscience and
connection.”  And the Chicago Tribune reviewed, “Rich … impassioned … engrossing … Politics and
art dominate the novel, and their overt, unapologetic connection is refreshing.”  Please bring a munchie
to share, your beverage of choice and your opinions about the book.  The Lacuna  is currently
available from Amazon in both hard cover and paperback and also available at most libraries and book
stores.  Directions to Bob DeHoff’s home:   From the north, take Butterfield Rd./Rte. 56 to Rte. 53; turn
