VSDC Book Club discusses “The Vegan” (online)

June 25 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm

Please join the Veg Society of DC Book Club discussion of Andrew Lipstein’s novel, “The Vegan.” This meeting will take place online, via zoom.

“Narrator Herschel Caine is trying to establish a quantitative fund with the potential to ‘upend the very definitions of public stocks, investing, money itself.’ … Before the deal is resolved … Herschel has a moral crisis; he grows horrified by the vast power of his firm’s algorithm, argues that art should have a social purpose, and becomes a vegan.” – Publishers Weekly (About the book and the author’s vegetarianism: [https://www.ourhenhouse.org/ep725/](https://www.ourhenhouse.org/ep725/) )

To participate read at least half the book — and RSVP at least two days before the meeting. People who RSVP yes will get the details to join the discussion (the weekend before the meeting). The details will not be posted on meetup.

The VSDC Book Club began meeting online in March 2020 (previously we met in vegetarian restaurants in DC or nearby Maryland or Virginia). We read fiction and nonfiction in alternating months, about any topic. For more information (including everything we have read over 30+ years!) visit: [https://vsdc.org/Book-Club](https://vsdc.org/Book-Club)
Or contact Beth through meet up: [https://www.meetup.com/members/1642817/](https://www.meetup.com/members/1642817/)

Don’t be a no show! If your plans change, update your RSVP.
