One of their founding members is dead, they've made a few unfortunate compromises to their membership, some of them aren't getting any younger, and they've been stuck on a single weepy tome for six long months. Resident maverick Runner Coghill decides to shake things up by introducing a cherished family heirloom to the group - ten pristine stone tablets, carved in cuneiform, telling the oldest story in the world: The Epic of Gilgamesh. Because their new book is written in an ancient language, the group must take the unprecedented step of allowing Runner to translate the whole story for them. But Runner-s narration is not of a common vein. Before they know it, the Cabalists have been thrust out to sea, on a journey in search of answers that extends halfway across the world to the war-torn land of this oldest story's birth. The Last Days of the Lacuna Cabal is an offbeat rites-of-passage novel whose characters live out literature with ferocity and passion. It is a funny, quixotic debut that follows the members of a shallow, squabbling, time-wasting, protracted-adolescent book club as they find themselves transformed through the alchemy of the storyteller's art. 1256873 2007 The Last Days of the Lacuna Cabal total:25|5:7|4:4|3:4|2:6|1:4| 25 79 98 10 2 0 false false Sun Jul 05 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Jun 24 06:51:30 -0700 2009 Tue Jul 07 09:03:14 -0700 2009 The Lacuna Cabal Montreal Young Women’s ...more...]]> 1 0 false false Tue Nov 17 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Oct 01 04:45:21 -0700 2009 Tue Nov 17 11:41:18 -0800 2009 I didn't like this book.
