For their April meeting, the CCR Book Club is reading the French blockbuster "Watching over Her" ("Veiller sur elle") by Jean-Baptiste Andrea. The New York Times review argues that this novel, which is set in a monastery in Piedmont and "traces the personal and political entanglements of a sculptor whose swagger belies his physical stature," poses the question of whether art can compromise with fascism.
