Minding our Mortality: Book Club

Minding our Mortality Book Club provides opportunities for conversations and connections around topics of death, mortality and grief through selected readings and quarterly gatherings.

For our August Book Club meetup, we will be discussing Aftertaste by Daria Lavelle.

A brief description of this fictional read is excerpted from Goodreads below:

Konstantin Duhovny is a haunted man. His father died when he was ten, and ghosts have been hovering around Kostya ever since. Kostya can’t exactly see the ghosts, but he can taste their favorite foods. Flavors of meals he’s never eaten will flood his mouth, a sign that a spirit is present. Kostya has kept these aftertastes a secret for most of his life, but one night, he decides to act on what he’s tasting. And everything changes.

This book is available via Bookshop HERE.

It is recommended that you read this book prior to our meeting at Neighbor on Tuesday evening, August 4th.

This is a free event, but you will have the option to make a suggested donation of $10 during the registration process—that would help us cover costs and is greatly appreciated! Beverages and snacks will be provided.
