SUMMARY:Brown Bag Books - White Houses by Amy Bloom
DESCRIPTION:Brown Bag Books - White Houses by Amy Bloom  The BBB has select
 ed White Houses by Amy Bloom (Fiction) for December\n\n“Lorena Hickok me
 ets Eleanor Roosevelt in 1932 while reporting on Franklin Roosevelt’s fi
 rst presidential campaign. Having grown up worse than poor in South Dakota
  and reinvented herself as the most prominent woman reporter in America\, 
 ‘Hick\,’ as she’s known to her friends and admirers\, is not quite i
 nstantly charmed by the idealistic\, patrician Eleanor. But then\, as her 
 connection with the future first lady deepens into intimacy\, what begins 
 as a powerful passion matures into a lasting love\, and a life that Hick n
 ever expected to have ... After she takes a job in the Roosevelt administr
 ation ... she comes to know Franklin not only as a great president but as 
 a complicated rival and an irresistible friend\, capable of changing lives
  even after his death. Through it all\, even as Hick’s bond with Eleanor
  is tested by forces both extraordinary and common\, and as she grows as a
  woman and a writer\, she never loses sight of the love of her life. From 
 Washington\, D.C. to Hyde Park\, from a little white house on Long Island 
 to an apartment on Manhattan’s Washington Square\, Amy Bloom’s new nov
 el moves elegantly through fascinating places and times\, written in compe
 lling prose and with emotional depth\, wit\, and acuity.” (Amazon)\n\n&n
