Upcoming Books
Some of the books we'll be discussingWe usually discuss two books every six weeks – one 19th (or 18th) Century and one 20th Century classic. You can choose to read one or both of the books (or neither..this isn’t school).
The discussion times each month will vary, and we’ll schedule two discussions of each book to suit different time zones.
