Discover new reads and enjoy lively discussions with our Sunday afternoon discussion group - So Many Books, So Little Time. This month's book is The Swimmers by Julie Otsuka.

She is reunited too late with her estranged daughter. This is an intimate story of mothers and daughters, and the sorrows of implacable loss.
