The Museum Book Club encourages visitors to engage with major special exhibitions by reading and discussing a specially selected book with Museum educator, Tori Waldron.
Each of the Book Club meetings begins with refreshments, including a themed snack and a variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, then Book Club members will partake in a guided discussion of the literature and the displayed art in our galleries.
FLIGHT BEHAVIOR
The Museum Book Club will feature a guided discussion of Flight Behavior by Barbara Kingsolver in the exhibition galleries at OKCMOA on March 6 from 5:30-7 pm.
“Flight Behavior is a brilliant and suspenseful novel set in present day Appalachia; a breathtaking parable of catastrophe and denial that explores how the complexities we inevitably encounter in life lead us to believe in our particular chosen truths. Kingsolver’s riveting story concerns a young wife and mother on a failing farm in rural Tennessee who experiences something she cannot explain, and how her discovery energizes various competing factions—religious leaders, climate scientists, environmentalists, politicians—trapping her in the center of the conflict and ultimately opening up her world. Flight Behavior represents contemporary American fiction at its finest.”
