The World Through Literature

The World Through Literature Image
A book club with a difference. Each week a different tutor presents a work of literature from across the genres and facilitates a lively discussion. Literature offers us an alternative view of the world or an escape into the imaginations of the fiction writer and the poet. It creates characters we love or hate and challenges our perceptions.

The works which the group members are asked to read in advance and will be discussed are:
Week 1 – 10th October 2024
Tutor: Rebecca Brown
Work: A Swim in a Pond in the Rain by George Saunders

Week 2 – 17th October 2024
Tutor: Garry MacKenzie
Work: The Life of Rebecca Jones by Angharad Price

Week 3 – 24th October 2024
TTutor: Beth McDonough
Work: My Name is Abilene by Elisabeth Sennitt Clough

Week 4 – 31st October 2024
Tutor: Nicole Brandon

Week 6 – 14th November 2024
