VSDC Book Club discusses “The Vegan” (online)

Please join the Veg Society of DC Book Club discussion of Andrew Lipstein’s novel, “The Vegan.” This meeting will take place online, via zoom. Narrator Herschel Caine is trying to establish a quantitative fund with the potential to ‘upend the very definitions of public stocks, investing, money itself.’ Herschel has a moral crisis; he grows horrified by the vast power of his firm’s algorithm, argues that art should have a social purpose, and becomes a vegan. - Publishers Weekly The VSDC Book Club began meeting online in March 2020 (previously we met in vegetarian restaurants in DC or nearby Maryland or Virginia). We read fiction and nonfiction in alternating months, about any topic. For more information (including everything we have read over 30+ years!) visit: https://vsdc.org/Book-Club
