Episode Synopsis
Send us a textWelcome to Season #3 Episode #17 of That Pretentious Book Club! In this episode Spoons and Wheezy leap into the classic novel by Betty Smith, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. Highly sentimental yet gritty in its realism, this novel is a beautiful and inspiring story of an Irish-American family finding their footing in the early 1900s. Join the hosts as they vacillate wildly from despair, hope, and adoration for these characters, while finding plenty of nonsense and sunburns to laugh about along the way.Skippers jump to 20:43 Pour yourself a cup of black coffee, raise a pinky, and join the club for this discussion of A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.Find this episode's book and more by shopping at https://bookshop.org/shop/storysirensstudio to support the club AND local bookstores!Visit us at storysirensstudio.com or find us on social media @thatpretentiousbookclub.Looking for exclusive TPBC content?
