December's Book: Small Things Like These by Claire Keegan
It is 1985 in a small Irish town. During the weeks leading up to Christmas, Bill Furlong, a coal merchant and family man, faces into his busiest season. Early one morning, while delivering an order to the local convent, Bill makes a discovery which forces him to confront both his past and the complicit silences of a town controlled by the church.
We will also be watching the 2024 Film Adaptation of this Book.
Pages from the Past usually meets monthly on the fourth Monday of each month. We will be reading mostly historical fiction books and the occasional popular non-fiction title.
