Josh, who runs the Modern Literature Book Club at Community Bookstore wrote to say that that next week the group will be reading Dubliners by James Joyce. If you care to come dressed as James Joyce et al you get BONUS POINTS.
Just a reminder that next week, on Wednesday, February 27, at 7:30, the Modern Literature Book Club will be discussing Joyce’s Dubliners. We will focus on the following stories: “An Encounter,” “Araby,” “Two Gallants,” “Counterparts,” “Grace,” and, of course, “The Dead.”
I hope you will come out. We don’t get to read many short story collections in this group, so it should make for an interesting evening…. Extra bonus points for anyone who comes to the meeting dressed as James or another member of the Joyce family (e.g. Nora Barnacle, Stanislaus Joyce, Lucia Joyce).As always, the book club is open to all. A Joycean refreshment will be served.
Take care,
JoshP.S. Here’s a link to an interesting site that has hypertexted (?) Dubliners. You can search it as you would a concordance. Enjoy! http://www.doc. ic.ac.uk/ ~rac101/concord/ texts/dubliners/
