Thanks to the generosity of Diane’s son, The River Run Book
Club held another great meetng last Sunday at the house with the view on Orchard Street, Campton, NH. Stephanie led the discussion on “An
Invisible Thread”. The general consensus
was that it was an enjoyable easy read (but with grammatical errors) and that both
Laura and Maurice were exceptional people.
While a few believe the story exactly as written, others believe that situations
not complimentary to both parties may have been omitted. It was important to keep in mind that they
met in the NYC of the 1970s, so different from today. As always
there was much to discuss – Maurice’s devotion to his mother and grandmother, his
ability to escape the family drug business.
And the questions - why would Laura marry a man who will not let Maurice
into his home, why didn’t she know before the marriage that he didn’t want additional children.
