[womeninmed] WIMS BookClub - June 13, 2022

[Katherine L. Beissner]

Sad to say that I also am unable to attend today. The weather is perfect for a good conversation in the garden.
I really enjoyed the book. While her feelings of guilt/remorse eventually led to great achievements (ignored for too long, true), for me this is a call to action. Or at least a reinforcement of the current call to “see (or hear) something, say something.”

Hello,
Unfortunately I need to travel to Kingston, PA on Monday so I will miss the book club. I am offering a book for September…..”The Sentence” by Louise Erdrich. I am also willing to host 9/12. Enjoy the discussion. Deb

All,
I'm looking forward to hosting the book club on Monday, June 13th, provided it is not raining! If it is raining, I think zoom might be best!

Look forward to seeing everyone again!

The next Women in Medicine & Science (WIMS) Book club is scheduled for June 13, 2022 at 5:30pm at Dale Avers' home (see below for address)



The book is:  The Only Woman in the Room by Marie Benedict

(Hedy Kiesler is lucky. Her beauty leads to a starring role in a controversial film and marriage to a powerful Austrian arms dealer, allowing her to evade Nazi persecution despite her Jewish heritage. But Hedy is also intelligent. At lavish Vienna dinner parties, she overhears the Third Reich's plans. One night in 1937, desperate to escape her controlling husband and the rise of the Nazis, she disguises herself and flees her husband's castle.  She lands in Hollywood, where she becomes Hedy Lamarr, screen star. But Hedy is keeping a secret even more shocking than her Jewish heritage: she is a scientist. She has an idea that might help the country and that might ease her guilt for escaping alone—if anyone will listen to her.)


If you plan to attend, please bring an appetizer or drink to share.

Please remember, you do not need to read the book to attend Book Club.
