Pages & Pairings: A Book Club Where Literature Meets Culinary Delights
Date: Thursday, May 15, 2025
Book: "American Dirt by Jeanine Cummins
Ever wondered what happens when you combine great books with delicious food and drink? Welcome to Pages & Pairings - a new kind of book club where we explore amazing stories while enjoying perfectly matched bites and beverages!
For our upcoming gathering, we're diving into Jeanine Cummins' powerful novel "American Dirt." You'll need to grab your own copy of the book before the event - bookstore, library, e-reader, audiobook - however you prefer to read! We will a a small selection of used copies available for purchase at Cambridge Market.
We're creating a thoughtful atmosphere while exploring this compelling story about Lydia Quixano Pérez, a bookstore owner from Acapulco who is forced to flee with her son after a tragic encounter with a drug cartel.
The food situation? We're talking Mexican-inspired cuisine paired with aguas frescas and select wines that connect to the book's journey. We'll feature regional specialties mentioned throughout the novel, including some traditional pastries as a nod to Lydia's love of books and coffee shops. It'll be an evening of good food, meaningful conversation, and literary connections.
Come ready to chat about the book, enjoy some tasty bites, and meet fellow readers who appreciate the combination of literature and culinary experiences as much as you do.
