SUMMARY:Best of the Best Book Club: "The Vegetarian" by Han Kang
DESCRIPTION:The Coronado Public Library’s Best of the Best Book Club meets regularly on the fourth Wednesday of each month to discuss books that have won major awards. Receive reminder emails about our meeting by registering below. Registration is not required. \nFor our January meeting\, we will discuss the 2016 Booker Prize winner The Vegetarian by Han Kang\, who recently made history by becoming the first Korean and the first Asian Nobel laureate in literature. \nPlace this title on hold via our online catalog\, or check out the e-book through the CloudLibrary app. \n \nAbout The Vegetarian \nBefore the nightmares began\, Yeong-hye and her husband lived an ordinary\, controlled life. But the dreams—invasive images of blood and brutality—torture her\, driving Yeong-hye to purge her mind and renounce eating meat altogether. It’s a small act of independence\, but it interrupts her marriage and sets into motion an increasingly grotesque chain of events at home. As her husband\, her brother-in-law and sister each fight to reassert their control\, Yeong-hye obsessively defends the choice that’s become sacred to her. Soon their attempts turn desperate\, subjecting first her mind\, and then her body\, to ever more intrusive and perverse violations\, sending Yeong-hye spiraling into a dangerous\, bizarre estrangement\, not only from those closest to her\, but also from herself. \nCelebrated by critics around the world\, The Vegetarian is a darkly allegorical\, Kafka-esque tale of power\, obsession\, and one woman’s struggle to break free from the violence both without and within her.

SUMMARY:Book Launch with "USA Today" Bestselling Author Jennifer Coburn: "The Girls of the Glimmer Factory"
DESCRIPTION:The library\, in partnership with Adventures by the Book\, presents an exclusive pre-release celebration of The Girls of the Glimmer Factory\, the latest novel from Jennifer Coburn\, author of Cradles of the Reich. Set against the backdrop of WWII\, this poignant tale of resistance\, friendship\, and the dangers of propaganda is inspired by the true story of Theresienstadt. \nMeet the author and hear her discuss this moving story about two women on opposite sides of history—Hannah\, a Jewish prisoner fighting to reveal the truth\, and Hilde\, a Nazi loyalist desperate to make a name for herself in the Reich Ministry of Propaganda. \nThis event is free and open to the public. Seating is first-come\, first-served\, subject to availability. Limited preferred seating is available with purchase of The Girls of the Glimmer Factory through Adventures by the Book. Please visit adventuresbythebook.com/calendar-event/jennifer-coburn-1-22-25 for more information. \nA New Glimpse Into WWII: “The Girls of the Glimmer Factory” \n \n\nAbout The Girls of the Glimmer Factory: Hannah longs for the days when she used to be free\, but now she is a Jewish prisoner at Theresienstadt\, a model ghetto where the Nazis plan to make a propaganda film to convince the world that the Jewish people are living well in the camps. But Hannah will do anything to show the world the truth. Along with other young resistance members\, they vow to disrupt the filming and derail the increasingly frequent deportations to death camps in the east. \nHilde is a true believer in the Nazi cause\, working in the Reich Ministry of Enlightenment and Propaganda. Though they’re losing the war\, Hilde hasn’t lost faith. She can’t stop the Allied bombings\, but she can help the party create a documentary that will renew confidence in Hitler’s plans for Jewish containment. When the filming of Hitler Gives a City to the Jews faces production problems due to resistance\, Hilde finds herself in a position to finally make a name for herself. And when she recognizes Hannah\, an old childhood friend\, she knows she can use their friendship to get the film back on track. \n\nJennifer Coburn is the author of Cradles of the Reich\, a historical novel about three very different women living at a Nazi Lebensborn breeding home at the start of World War ll. She has also published a mother-daughter travel memoir\, We’ll Always Have Paris\, as well as six contemporary women’s novels. Additionally\, Jennifer has contributed to five literary anthologies\, including A Paris All Your Own. Jennifer lives in San Diego with her husband\, William. Their daughter\, Katie is currently in graduate school. When Jennifer is not going down historical research rabbit holes\, she volunteers with So Say We All\, a live storytelling organization\, where she is a performer\, producer\, and performance coach. She is also an active volunteer with Reality Changers\, a nonprofit that supports low-income high school students in becoming the first in their families to attend college.

SUMMARY:Classic Film Screening: "Good Will Hunting"
DESCRIPTION:Popular 1997 film to kick off CIFF 2025 Classic Series \n \nWhen organizers of Coronado Island Film Festival’s monthly film series announced from the theatre stage last month that the first film selection of the 2025 classic series would be the 1997 favorite\, “Good Will Hunting” on January 29\, the audience erupted in applause. \nAnd no wonder.  It was the breakout film of two cute young unknown guys who grew up in Boston named Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. Close friends since childhood\, they co-wrote the script of GWH and\, against all odds in an industry partial to proven winners\, secured the services of a top director (Gus Van Sant)\, a first-rate cast (Robin Williams\, Stellan Scarsgärd\, and Minnie Driver among others)\, and garnered nine 1998 Academy Award nominations. It won two\, including Best Screenplay for Affleck and Damon\, the two youngest recipients ever to win that award (25 and 27\, respectively). The screenplay began as a 40-page one-act play written by Matt Damon while a student at Harvard. \nBoth Damon and Affleck also starred in the film. It was the first and only Oscar for Robin Williams\, who was named Best Actor in a Supporting Role. When Damon was asked in an interview years later years later about working with Robin Williams\, his response was\, “Robin. Wow. He was a very deep\, deep river.” \nAdditional Oscar nominations were Best Picture (Lawrence Bender\, producer)\, Best Actor (Damon)\, Best Supporting Actress in a Supporting Role (Minnie Driver)\, Best Director (Van Sant)\, Best Film Editing (Pietro Scalia)\, Best Original Song (Elliot Smith)\, and Best Original Dramatic Score (Danny Elfan). \n“Good Will Hunting” will screen at Coronado’s Village Theatre\, 820 Orange Avenue on Wednesday\, January 29 at 5:30 p.m. Doors will open at 5 p.m. for a complementary “Meet and Greet Happy Hour” (and best seat selection). Tickets are $15\, available now\, and may be purchased at coronadofilmfest.com. \nSo come enjoy “Good Will Hunting” for what it is\, a “timeless little opus that managed to make South Boston look romantic and happened to make Ben Affleck and Matt Damon some of the most deserving superstars in recent memory.” [IMDB user review} \nNext month\, on Wed.\, Feb 26\, CIFF will present “What Women Want\,” starring Mel Gibson and Helen Hunt: a film by a favorite filmmaker of ours\, Nancy Myers (i.e. “The Holiday\,” “Something’s Gotta Give\,” “It’s Complicated\,” “The Parent Trap”). \nWe’re still awaiting final approval of our complete 2025 film lineup. It’s one of our most exciting and we can’t wait to tell you about it!

SUMMARY:Delta Beach Clean Up With Emerald Keepers
DESCRIPTION:Join Emerald Keepers on Saturday\, February 8 from 10 am to 12 noon to support the Navy’s cleanup of Delta Beach. \nDelta Beach\, on the bay side of Coronado’s Naval Amphibious Base\, is located 2.7 miles south of the Hotel Del. Look for the large Emerald Keepers sign by a gate in the fence. Volunteers can park at the Fiddler’s Cove parking lot at the south end of Delta Beach\, or parking will also be available on the sand inside the gated entrance to Delta Beach. \nRecruit your friends and neighbors as there is a large beach area to clean up. Registration is not required. Bring a reusable water bottle to stay hydrated and\, a picker and bucket if you have them. Emerald Keepers will have some gloves\, buckets\, and pickers available for volunteers. \nOn the bay side of Coronado’s Naval Amphibious Base\, Delta Beach is not usually open to the public or Navy activity as it is was recently designated a critical habitat for the Least Tern and Snowy Plover birds. As a result\, the large amount of trash that washes ashore is not accessible for most beach cleanups and accumulates throughout the year.
