Get together with colleagues to discuss The Bright Hour: A Memoir of Living and Dying by Nina Riggs.  This memoir, written similar to When Breath Becomes Air, examines living and dying with breast cancer.    

Exploring motherhood, marriage, friendship, and memory, even as she wrestles with the legacy of her great-great-great grandfather, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nina Riggs's breathtaking memoir continues the urgent conversation that Paul Kalanithi began in his gorgeous When Breath Becomes Air. She asks, what makes a meaningful life when one has limited time?
