In the spirit of Frobisher's adventure, his struggles, loves, ego and his ultimate triumph...join the club!
Thanks, Mom, for setting up the google group.
More later.

Love the group Pat thank you!!!  Not sure Froby is my top character of all that we have read. Triumph? Not totally sure about that. Still have questions regarding that and that book in general.  Maybe we can think on the group name?  Hmmm.....

His triumph was the music he wrote, The Cloud Atlas Sextet.
That was his only triumph, perhaps, but it was a great one.
I'd love to hear that piece of music. 

Maybe we could change the name of the group after each book we read.  Suggestions?

Im fine w Froby's. I think I was feeling nostalgia for East of Eden after C A.  But in Froby we can celebrate our flawed selves, the parts of ourselves still working on being triumphant, as well as our triumphs. We humans are generally hodge podges of these two things anyway.

I don't think I can remember a new name for each book.   Many days I feel like a Froby so I vote we keep it   Anybody else?

Just a heads up that PBS is running a series on the "Abolitionists" and it seems really relevant to our last book, Beloved.   Might want to check it out if you can.     Caryl
