This month’s Adult Book Discussion book will be Afterlife by Julia Alvarez.

Antonia Vega has just retired when her husband suddenly dies, her unstable sister disappears, and a pregnant teenager appears on her doorstep. Antonia has always sought direction in the literature she loves—lines from her favorite authors play in her head like a soundtrack—but now she finds that the world demands more of her than words.
