Thanks to those who sent in suggestions for the AJL Reads virtual book discussion. From among all those excellent suggestions, we have chosen Reading Claudius: A Memoir in Two Parts by Caroline Heller because it's about the power of literature.
We will hold the book discussion at the beginning of November. You can find a copy new or used here: https://www.amazon.com/Reading-Claudius-Memoir-Two-Parts/dp/0385337612/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1473713907&sr=8-1&keywords=reading+claudius You can also buy an e-book from the publisher here: http://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/78135/reading-claudius-by-caroline-heller/ We're going to experiment with a different format for this discussion. Instead of a conference call, we will use Facebook to discuss the book over a period of several days. Author Caroline Heller will join our discussion to answer questions on Facebook. If you have a Facebook account, you can join the Facebook Group at https://www.facebook.com/groups/ajlreads. If you are not a member of Facebook, you will be able to read the discussion but not participate. I believe we will hold the discussion during Tuesday and Wednesday November 1-2 (just confirming with Caroline Heller now). This should make it convenient for people to participate from different time zones. We will post discussion questions throughout those days, and I hope you will respond with comments and opinions, and your questions for the author. Let me know if you have any questions!
