This month’s Adult Book Discussion book will be Matrix by Lauren Groff.
Cast out of the royal court by Eleanor of Aquitaine, deemed too coarse and rough-hewn for marriage or courtly life, 17-year-old Marie de France is sent to England to be the new prioress of an impoverished abbey, its nuns on the brink of starvation and beset by disease.
For more insight into Matrix, Melissa recommends reading the Marie de France Wikipedia article and Keishel Williams’ Matrix review for NPR.
