SUMMARY:Murphy Branch Book Club
DESCRIPTION:The Murphy Branch Book Club meets the first Wednesday of the 
 month at 11am\n\nThis month\, the Murphy Book Club will be reading The 
 Samurai's Garden by Gail Tsukiyama.\n\n You can view the book in our 
 catalog here.\n\nA 20-year-old Chinese painter named Stephen is sent to his 
 family's summer home in a Japanese coastal village to recover from a bout 
 with tuberculosis. Here he is cared for by Matsu\, a reticent housekeeper 
 and a master gardener. Over the course of a remarkable year\, Stephen 
 learns Matsu's secret and gains not only physical strength\, but also 
 profound spiritual insight. Matsu is a samurai of the soul\, a man devoted 
 to doing good and finding beauty in a cruel and arbitrary world\, and 
 Stephen is a noble student\, learning to appreciate Matsu's generous and 
 nurturing way of life and to love Matsu's soul-mate\, gentle Sachi\, a 
 woman afflicted with leprosy.
