The Book Club book
Elif Shafak is a British Turkish novelist. There Are Rivers in the Sky is a rich, enchanting novel focusing on three characters, in three different times and places, all somehow touched by the Mesopotamian poem, The Epic of Gilgamesh. As well as a gripping story it is also a story of the preciousness of water - the characters live along the banks of the River Tigris and the River Thames in London.
In 1840 London, Arthur is born next to the unpleasant, polluted River Thames. Arthur has a remarkable memory, which will help him to escape poverty, by joining a book publishers. And one book sparks his interest: Nineveh and Its Remains.

In 2014 Turkey, Narin, a ten-year-old Yazidi girl, is going deaf. Consequently, her grandmother wants to travel to the family’s ancestral lands along the Tigris in Iraq to baptize her in a special temple. But how to cope to the rising presence of ISIS in the area?

In 2018 London, Zaleekah, a newly divorced hydrologist, escapes from her husband by moving into a houseboat on the Thames. Things are looking bleak for her, until a strange book about her homeland changes everything.

Geoff says:

<h1 id="isPasted" fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Cosmos Connections and Contemplations</h1>When was the last time you looked up at the night sky with wide-eyed curiosity, appreciating the magic and awe of the stars? The practice of mindful stargazing is about immersing yourself in the experience of the night time and developing a first-hand, experiential knowledge of what it is not to look out at the Universe, but to &lsquo;be&rsquo; in this vast Universe of ours. During the evening we&rsquo;ll be exploring a variety of mindful stargazing practices, focussing on contemplating our place within the cosmos and our connections to it &ndash; scientifically, energetically and spiritually.&nbsp;Before going outside, we&rsquo;ll practice a cosmic body scan, sensing different parts of our body and how they&rsquo;re made of stuff that was produced in stars billions of years ago. Then as we go outdoors, we&rsquo;ll spend some time immersing ourselves in the experience of the night sky as it is (clear or cloudy), and explore how we can feel part of the cosmos, at home in this vast universe of ours. We&rsquo;ll finish by contemplating some amazing images of space and exploring some of the myths and stories associated with the constellations.Hearty supper and hot drinks included.Note the event will go ahead whatever the weather.<h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">About Mark</h2>

The setting, the format, the food and the knowledge that Mark has totally filled my heat and heart with joy, light and awe. &nbsp;I cannot recommend this evening enough. &nbsp;If you just want to find out more of what is up there when we look up; but also find yourself totally grounded to the here and now, then this is the evening of for you. &nbsp;Mark is an absolute wonder. &nbsp;I will keep looking up Mark and dream of floating in the cosmos whilst kissing the earth with every step. &nbsp;Thank you. &ndash;&nbsp;Karen&nbsp;(Nov 22) It was a deeply connecting, experiential, immersive and overall delightful event - surprisingly undiminished by the rain and cloud cover! Tokes Farm, Dorset was a perfect venue. You have such a gift for creating a relaxed and engaging atmosphere. The way you brought together your astronomical knowledge, Zen training, yoga and chi gong teaching was and is, a great blessing. My senses were heightened and I felt relaxed, energised and engaged throughout the evening. I felt as though I had travelled to the outer reaches of the universe and back. It was a very enriching, unique opportunity and evening. Thank you!! &ndash; Gail (Nov 22) What a thought provoking and stimulating occasion it was. I felt privileged to have had the opportunity to share that time with everyone and your guidance to reset our perspective in every way. &ndash;&nbsp;Paul and Rosalie (Feb 23)

Further Development
The EFQM Performance Improvement Practitioner training provides core knowledge about the RADAR Logic. In some cases, the training will have fulfilled an individual's learning needs.
