Roma Words, Roma Worlds

The Roma Words, Roma Worlds book group will discuss Three Songs for Roxy by Caren Gussoff Sumption at this month's meeting. Three Songs for Roxy tells three inter-related tales: of Kizzy, a foundling raised by a Romany Gypsy family in present-day Seattle, as she is about to be claimed by the aliens who left her to be raised as human; of Scott Lynn Miller, an unstable survivor of Katrina and security guard who is deeply affected by what he witnesses when the aliens contact Kizzy; and of “Natalie,” an alien assigned to retrieve Kizzy—who is befriended by the current champion of the “Night of a Thousand Stevies” and falls in love with Kizzy’s adopted sister Roxy.

The Roma Words, Roma Worlds book group discusses the work of authors of Romani descent. Copies available at the front desk by request starting one month before the meeting.   

Join us in person in the Conti Room or via zoom.  Registration is only required if you need the zoom link. Walk-ins are welcome.
