Next Meeting Date: Tuesday, February 18
Time: 1:30 - 2:30
Where: Beth Emet
In the last meeting……the group discussed the story “If God Existed, He’d Be a Solid Midfielder” by Aleksandar Hemon, a story set in Chicago. Led by Bill Steel, the conversation was engrossing and touched on themes of immigration, identity and belonging, religion and meaningfulness, aging, and play.
The next meeting…
…is Tuesday February 18.
The next story…
…is “Sonny’s Blues” by James Baldwin. The discussion will be led by Tom Arthur who recently has been focusing on Baldwin’s work. (Baldwin was born in 1924; the literary world has been celebrating the 100-year anniversary of his birth.)
For right now…
…here’s a short short story (sometimes called “flash fiction”) that recent political events call to mind. It’s a 1½- page story by the Italian author Italo Calvino that was published in Granta, December 1, 1993 titled “The Black Sheep.”
Please RSVP.
