Book Club lead by Freda Goldberg, author / writing teacher / M.Ed
When Margo and Philip set out to change the lives of five struggling, recovering addicts, their lives begin to change as drastically as the lives of the individuals they are trying to help. Pick up this book and enjoy an upbeat story about a typically depressing topic. Explore what can happen when we think outside the box.
For each class bring your mat, journal / notebook, favorite pen(s), and copy of Stop Twisting the Knife: A Novel Approach to Addiction.
