Men’s Group – May 2007 “Small Town”
Mark K May 1st, 2007
We selected “Look Homeward, Angel” by Thomas Wolfe and “The Dish” as our book and film for May. We didn’t do too well with the reading – we decided that if we added up all of the pages that each of us read, we still hadn’t finished the book. Although some of us found Wolfe’s prose to be artfully done – almost like poetry – we found that it was just too much work to make it through 500+ pages. Although some of “Angel” did take place in a small town it wasn’t the same as “The Dish”, in which the small town becomes almost like a major character in the story. Speaking of major characters, the group met in an appropriate small town setting – the quirky downstairs bar in the American Legion log cabin in San Anselmo. Our major interaction with our fellow patrons this time involved dodging the backwards thrusts of pool cues.
