SUMMARY:Verve Book Club: Shanda by Letty Cottin Pogrebin
DESCRIPTION:The word “shanda” is defined as shame or disgrace in Yiddish. In her astonishingly candid memoir\, author\, activist\, and Ms. magazine founder Letty Cottin Pogrebin seeks to understand the role of shame and secrecy in a family of devout Jewish immigrants whose social status — in America and even among one another — required the calculated concealment of a number of uncomfortable truths. Beginning with her own long-suppressed secret\, the story spirals through the hidden lives of her parents and relatives—revealing the truth about their origins\, personal traumas\, marital misery\, abandoned children\, religious transgressions\, sexual identity\, radical politics\, and illnesses.

SUMMARY:Verve Book Club: The Nickel Boys by Colson Whitehead
DESCRIPTION:When Elwood Curtis\, a Black boy growing up in 1960s Tallahassee\, is unfairly sentenced to a juvenile reformatory called the Nickel Academy\, he finds himself trapped in a grotesque chamber of horrors. Elwood’s only salvation is his friendship with fellow “delinquent” Turner\, which deepens despite Turner’s conviction that Elwood is hopelessly naive\, that the world is crooked\, and that the only way to survive is to scheme and avoid trouble. Based on the real story of a reform school that operated for 111 years and warped the lives of thousands of children\, this Pulitzer prize-winning novel showcases Colson Whitehead at his best.
