Upcoming pick for the Good Reads Book Club:

Matrix by Lauren Groff

“Groff (Florida) fashions a boldly original narrative based on the life and legend of 12th-century poet Marie de France. After Marie is banished to a poverty-stricken British abbey by Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine at age 17 in 1158, she transforms from a reluctant prioress into an avid abbess. With the rhythm of days and nights regulated by the canonical hours from Lauds to Prime, from Compline to bed, Marie reshapes the claustrophobic community into a "self-sufficient... island of women," where "a woman's power exists only as far as she is allowed.” –Publisher’s Weekly
