Join our host Chris Stacey and fellow Columbia alumni as the book club discusses Somebody's Fool; a selection from our book club member Michael Shapiro.

Set over three days in February 2010, the novel opens with a bleak snapshot: The recession has wreaked havoc on local businesses and families. Sully’s been gone a decade, felled by a heart attack, but his survivors — his professor son, Peter; his paramour, Ruth, and her volatile daughter and granddaughter; his awkward friend,  Rub — conjure the ghost of the figure they adored and resented.
