Join us, along with our friends from Calvert Library, as, each month, we read, discuss, and digest one of our favorite culinary novels.

The students have come to learn the art behind Lillian's soulful dishes, but it soon becomes clear that each seeks a recipe for something beyond the kitchen. And soon they are transformed by the aromas, flavors, and textures of what they create....
