SUMMARY:Afternoon Book Group: NH Big Read - The Bear
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate New Hampshire's BIG READ by reading the NH Humanities 
 choice for this year's Big Read: "The Bear" by Andrew Krivak.\n\nIn an 
 Edenic future\, a girl and her father live close to the land in the shadow 
 of a lone mountain. They possess a few remnants of civilization: some 
 books\, a pane of glass\, a set of flint and steel\, a comb. The father 
 teaches the girl how to fish and hunt\, the secrets of the seasons and the 
 stars. He is preparing her for an adulthood in harmony with nature\, for 
 they are the last of humankind. But when the girl finds herself alone in an 
 unknown landscape\, it is a bear that will lead her back home through a 
 vast wilderness that offers the greatest lessons of all\, if she can only 
 learn to listen.  \n\nA cautionary tale of human fragility\, of love and 
 loss\, The Bear is a stunning tribute to the beauty of nature’s dominion 
 and explores powerful themes about the importance of intergenerational 
 storytelling\, our complicated relationship with the environment\, and how 
 to prepare for an unknown future. \n\nClick here to learn more about the 
 New Hampshire Big Read.\n\n\nJoin us the third Tuesday of every month for 
 an in-depth discussion of quality best-selling fiction and nonfiction books 
 including biographies\, most less than 300 pages.\n\nRegistration 
 requested.
