Along the way, she discovers what the game has always really been about: the hunger for connection, the rituals that hold communities together, and what women reveal—and conceal—when they think they’re just playing a game.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Table of Four\u003c\/i\u003e is a celebration, an investigation, and an invitation.
