If you are a big fan of classic works of fiction, then you will thoroughly enjoy this group. Until recently, the group was headed up by Stephen Wood. Unfortunately, Mr. Wood's other commitments have made it necessaary for him to step down. Stephen was a great fan of classic literature, and had a real knack for analizing and interpreting these works. As a fairly recent member of the group, I plan to continue in the same spirit that Stephen provided. Although his enthusiasm and incite will be missed, it is certainly shared by the other members of this most articulate group.
The plan is to continue to present wonderful classic stories, and get together for lively and fascinating discussions on a monthly basis. Since I am just beginning my term as group leader, I'm looking forward to everyone's input and enthusiasm. The immediate goal is to continue the meeting schedule, while putting a group framework together as we go.
See you soon!!

We decided at October's meetup to give it a shot for December. As it is always a frantic busy month, the prevailing wisdom is to pick a short work for this meetup. Of Mice and Men is all of about 100 pages, and should prove a quick read. This book describes an unlikely pair. George is "small and quick and dark of face"; Lennie, a man of tremendous size, has the mind of a young child. Read more
