Some thoughts about The Places in Between...

I'm sure Gael will have many aspects of the book for us to talk about at our meeting, but the following are some things I pondered while reading the book:

- What were the author's motivations for going on such a journey? What were his accomplishments when it was over?

- Do the many cultural differences in Afghanistan parallel the cultural differences in the United States? If someone knew nothing about the United States, and they traveled across it, what would their travelogue read like?

- As U.S. citizens what can we learn from this book?

Come join us to discuss this fascinating book on March 12th at noon in Conference Room 3 at the Main Library.
