Boston Bookclub

Because we like to write a lot of emails, because we have trouble reaching a consensus, because we're busy people, and, most importantly, because we all have fascinating insights into literature... we are making this space the space where we do all things 'book club.'

Great article from the NYT on another Willa Cather novel! http://travel.nytimes.com/2007/08/26/travel/26Footsteps.html?8dpc

Has anyone else read Death Comes for the Archbishop? I read it years ago and remember really liking it.

Looking forward to next week! = )
The 4th works for me.

By the way, I hope I sent this email to everyone, if not...

"Bruce and I were throwing (get it?) :) around the idea of inviting people over for sand volleyball this weekend.... but for volleyball to work... especially with those of us who can't play... we'll need a decent group.

Please let me know if 1) you're interested and 2) if there is a preferred time for anyone."

Best,
Wendy

When is the next meeting? (so I can properly budget my time between this and the Deathly Hallows) And, speaking of which, when is the Harry Potter break-out session? ;-]

Seriously, is there a fixed date for the next meeting?
