Join our Fiction Book Group online to discuss The Leopard, by Giuseppe di Lampedusa.

Set in the 1860s, The Leopard tells the spellbinding story of a decadent, dying Sicilian aristocracy threatened by the approaching forces of democracy and revolution.

Confronting these social changes, an elderly aristocrat faces civil war and his family's loss of wealth and status. Ultimately, he must decide to resist the forces of change or come to terms with them.

Menlo Park’s Fiction Book Group meets virtually on the second Tuesday of each month.
