Book Club on Eagle Springs Lake

On the next to last day of our month-long stay at the John Day home on Eagle Springs Lake, we had the gang out for lunch and a discussion of the book, "The Invisible Wall," by Harry Bernstein. It is the story of his childhood growing up in poverty in England on a street where Jews lived on one side and Christians on the other.

It was the start of his success as an author at the age of 96 and was written to help him overcome his grief at the loss of Ruby, his wife of 67 years. He went on to write two more books, "The Dream" and "The Golden Willow."
