Episode 10: Conversation with Claudia Sjoberg
Claudia is a local (Vancouver) business owner, entrepreneur, community leader, and all round wonderful, fun and caring friend to many.
She is also a big reader and shared with me the long impressive list of books she's read with her book club -- but we also delved into some of the many more books she reads and enjoys beyond that list. We followed a list of questions to uncover what she likes and doesn't like and heard what she's come to know is important for her in reading, and the power of the story for all of us.
We looked for a couple of books we'd both enjoyed reading and settled on these two Canadian reads, the novel Indian Horse by Richard Wagamese
and the memoir in essays, Run Towards the Danger: Confrontations with a Body of Memory by Sarah Polley.
Other books that came up in our discussion were:
Women Talking by Miriam Toews
The Paying Guest by Sarah Watts
The Alchemist by Paolo Coehlo
The Celestine Prophecy by James Redfield
The Secret by Rhonda Byrne
Books by Robert Galbraith (JK Rowling) -- the Cormoran Strike detective series
Iona Whishaw Lane Winslow mystery series
Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell
Olive Kitteridge, Olive Again, My name is Lucy Barton and Oh William! by Elizabeth Strout
Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace
Miss Morgan’s Book Brigade by Janet Skeslien Charles
Doppelgänger by Naomi Klein
Children’s books:
Jumanji and The Polar Express by Chris Van Allsburg
One Halloween Night by Mark Teague
Norman the Doorman by Don Freeman
