    Book cover

    Join us for a lunchtime book discussion of Crows Over a Wheatfield by Paula Sharp.

    “Make no mistake: Crows Over a Wheatfield, titled after a scene Vincent van Gogh painted in his madness, is a protest novel. Like Upton Sinclair’s The Jungle or Frank Norris’ The Octopus, it tells an emotional story to make us reach an intellectual conclusion: The Chicago stockyards are filthy and unsafe; Southern Pacific Railroad is an oppressive monopoly; in this case, family law in the United States is flawed almost beyond repair.” —Michael Harris, Los Angeles Times
