Join us & our friends from Pearl’s for a Stevie Wonder themed book club on January 27th, featuring Songs in the Key of Life by Zeth Lundy.

”Zeth Lundy's book, in keeping with the album's themes, is structured as a life cycle. It's divided into the following Birth; Innocence/Adolescence; Experience/Adulthood; Death; Rebirth. Within this framework, Zeth Lundy covers Stevie Wonder's excessive work habits and recording methodology, his reliance on synthesizers, the album's place in the gospel-inspired progression of 1970s R'n'B, and many other subjects.” (from Goodreads)

For last month’s book club, we read Master of Reality by John Darnielle. At 101 pages, this book was emotionally jam-packed, told through the fictional lens of a young adult locked in an adolescent psychiatric center. Through the narrator’s obsession with Black Sabbath, we explored the impact of belonging and feeling seen. We talked about nostalgic marijuana-related music (and MJ inspired music moments 👀), Black Sabbath as a vessel to deliver topics of Christianity, and the importance of autonomy and respect in mental health care.
