Where: At the home of Dick Cousineau at 505 Alegria off of Los Positas, north of the freeway 687-2371
 
The book: Since the acclaimed   lawyer, author, and columnist Wendy Kaminer will be speaking to the  Society at our Sept. 23 monthly meeting, the Book Club has decided to  co-ordinate our 9/20 program with her appearance. Last year we  discussed her most well-known book, Sleeping with Extra-Terrestrials,  This year we've each agreed to choose from one of her two most  important other books: It's All the Rage (1995),a discussion of  crimes and punishments, (e.g. the OJ Simpson circus) and Free for  All  (2002), an excellent collection of essays and writings about the  post 9/11 attack on our civil liberties. .
 
Future plans: Our selection for October 18 is Salman Rushdie's The Satanic Verses.
