DGC Book Club – “The Orange Lilies” by Nathan Dylan Goodwin. 2014 Fiction
February 6 @ 12:30 pm
Morton Farrier’s life as a forensic genealogist has kept him from his own family’s secrets- until now. This Christmastime novella follows Morton as he investigates the mysterious events surrounding his family’s past, as well as events from one hundred years ago. In the course of his research, it soon becomes clear that not all of the soldiers had a peaceful truce on the Western Front during that fateful 1914 Christmas…
‘Morton confronts a long-standing mystery in his own family–one that leads him just a little closer to the truth about his personal origins. This Christmas-time tale flashes back to Christmas 1914, to a turning point in his relatives’ lives. Don’t miss it!’ Lisa Louise Cooke
