The Mission Bay Book Club selections for May are two short novels by author Magda Szabo.
Feel free to read one or both of the books.
The Door is a stylishly told tale which recounts a strange relationship built up over 20 years between a writer and her housekeeper.
After an unpromising and caustic start benign feelings develop and ultimately the writer benefits from what becomes an inseparable relationship.
Iza's Ballad is the story of a woman who loses her life's companion and a mother trying to get close to a daughter whom she has never truly known.
It is about the meeting of the old-fashioned and the modern worlds and the beliefs we construct over a lifetime.
