When retired math teacher Grace Winters is left a run-down house on a Mediterranean island by a long-lost friend, curiosity gets the better of her. She arrives in Ibiza with a one-way ticket, no guidebook and no plan.
Among the rugged hills and golden beaches of the island, Grace searches for answers about her friend’s life, and how it ended. What she uncovers is stranger than she could have dreamed. But to dive into this impossible truth, Grace must first come to terms with her past.We will meet at Louisa Davis's.

Housing as We Age Discussion
One decision, or series of decisions, we all need to consider as we age is how our housing needs will change as we age. You may be pondering such questions as:
How should I modify my existing house so I can stay in it longer?
If I want to have someone come live with me, for either financial or care-giving reasons, what do I need to know?
Are there co-housing options nearby? And how it that different from sharing my home?
What other housing options are available?
If you are thinking about any of these questions, please join Nancy Supik and Beth Braun for a discussion on how we, as What’s Next, can work together to answer these questions. The first meeting will be held on Sunday, October 4th, at 2:00 pm at Nancy’s house. We will spend time determining which areas of interest apply to those that attend—and how we can delve deeper into the topics. We expect there will be a series of [at least three] informative gatherings after that first meeting. And, depending on the interests of the group, potentially many more after the first set of meetings.
RSVP to hello@whatsnextbaltimore.org

September Book Group
We will next meet September 15 at 7 p.m. at George Frazier's house. All are welcome.
We will be reading Solito by Javier Zamora.
New York Times Bestseller • Read With Jenna Book Club Pick as seen on Today • Winner of the Los Angeles Times Christopher Isherwood Prize for Autobiography • Winner of the American Library Association Alex Award • A Kirkus Reviews Best Nonfiction Book of the Century
A young poet tells the inspiring story of his migration from El Salvador to the United States at the age of nine in this “gripping memoir” (NPR) of bravery, hope, and finding family.
A memoir as gripping as it is moving, Solito provides an immediate and intimate account not only of a treacherous and near-impossible journey, but also of the miraculous kindness and love delivered at the most unexpected moments. Solito is Javier Zamora’s story, but it’s also the story of millions of others who had no choice but to leave home.Need George’s Address? susanmsterett@gmail.com

We'll be discussing Niall Williams, As it is in Heaven.
Summary: Time has already stopped for Stephen Griffin when he moves into the little house by the sea. Twenty-eight years old and haunted by death, the tall, awkward, shy schoolteacher is content to care for his father in Dublin and let life pass him by. Then a miracle appears: a string ensemble from Venice and, with it, a violinist named Gabriella Castoldi. Even though the worldly, beautiful musician seems incapable of giving her heart, love seizes Stephen Griffin ... unbidden and shaking every particle of his spirit. Features Williams's characteristic lyrical writing.All welcome.
Host: Barkley Murray. Questions, need address?: susanmsterett@gmail.com
