November Book: The Cradle by Patrick Somerville
The November book for the Gapers Block Book Club is The Cradle by Patrick Somerville. This compelling first novel begins with the story of Marissa Bishop, who is pregnant with her first child. She sends her husband, Matt, on a mission to reclaim an antique cradle from the mother who abandoned Marissa years ago. Along the way, Matt will embark on his own journey of self-discovery.
