Shelter in a good book

This Boston Globe story about a book club set up by the homeless in Boston is beautiful.

You can read it all via the link but here's the hook:

"For two lively hours every Tuesday morning, in a church meeting room with old oil portraits, they are book club members first and homeless people second.

"The story of the book club, now in its 10th month, is a tale of ordinary city life upended. It began with a stunningly unlikely friendship, between two men from different worlds: Peter Resnik, a high-powered lawyer on his way to work, and Rob, a homeless man guarding a friend’s shopping cart on Boston Common. Through months of daily conversations, that began with jokes and sports talk and gradually delved deeper, they found a common interest: literature. And when they saw the bridge that they had built, they recognized its potential for others."
