Hi Ladies,

I talked with Ellen about joining our book group and yes, she is going to give it a try.  Her first meeting will the the Nov/Dec one so be on your best behavior.  :)  I've added her email to the blog so if you post your invitation here she will automatically receive it.  Otherwise her email address is creedrowan@comcast.net.

Great Literary Works

Today I read a talk by Bruce Hafen and came across this little gem.  It's a statement by Arthur Henry King, that says that most truly great literary works will raise some profound question about a human problem, explore the question skillfully and in depth, and then leave the matter for the reader to resolve.  If the resolution seems too clear or too easy, the literature is perhaps not very good or else those reading it have missed its point.

I love that - it makes me want to read more and more books that make me think!!!

Winding up 2015

Hi Ladies,

Thanks for coming to Book Club this week.  It's always nice to get together.  Of course we missed those of you who were out of town.

In October Christa will be our hostess and we will discuss Who Shall Be Able to Stand by Michael Wilcox.  We don't have a hostess for December but I would love to have you to my home again.  We will be reading The Wright Brothers for that month.  Both of these books are fabulous so we are ending the year on a high note.

Happy reading until next time.

Molly
