Join us at Goldfinger Brewing Company to discuss Isola by Allegra Goodman. Books are available at the Adult & Teen Services Desk one month before each discussion. For those 21 and over.
Heir to a fortune, Marguerite is destined for a life of prosperity and gentility. Then she is orphaned, and her guardian spends her inheritance and insists she accompany him on an expedition to New France. Isolated and afraid, Marguerite befriends her guardian's servant and the two develop an intense attraction. But when their relationship is discovered, they are brutally punished and abandoned on a small island with no hope for rescue. Inspired by the real life of a sixteenth-century heroine, Isola is the timeless story of a woman fighting for survival.
