Pageturners Book Club – June Read: “Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight: An African Childhood” by Alexandra Fuller

Wednesday, June 28 (10:15 am)

The Pageturners Book Club is discussing “Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight: An African Childhood” by Alexandra Fuller on the fourth Wednesday of the month. Though it is a diary of an unruly life in an often inhospitable place, Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight is suffused with Fuller’s endearing ability to find laughter, even when there is little to celebrate. Fuller’s debut is unsentimental and unflinching but always captivating. In wry and sometimes hilarious prose, she stares down disaster and looks back with rage and love at the life of an extraordinary family in an extraordinary time.
