Author Alice Hoffman chose The Photograph [4] by Penelope Lively (Viking) as the next title to be read by the Today Book Club. The announcement was made on NBC's Today Show on Tuesday, March 23.

Lively's book was a Top Ten July/August 2003 Book Sense 76 Pick. In nominating the title for the 76, Marian Fleischman of Sedalia Book & Toy in Sedalia, Missouri, said, "Kicked off by the discovery of an incriminating photograph, the characters in this book find a missing woman and themselves in a journey I won't soon forget. This intricate story reads like silk sliding across your hands."
