The Modernist Book Club

Fourth Wednesday of every month @ 7:00 pm

Began  November 2006

The Modernist Book Club is a lively group of people who delight in a “modern” book and await the opportunity to discuss it in an informal setting at the back of the store, near the Garden. Sometimes 8, other times 18, hardy readers gather to discuss the latest selection.

Some past selections: J.M. Coetzee’s Elizabeth Costello, Ford Maddox Ford’s The Good Soldier, Marcel Proust’s Swann’s Way, Raymond Chandler’s The Long Goodbye, Rebecca West’s The Fountain Overflows, William Faulkner’s Absalom, Absalom!, Robert Musil’s, The Confusions of Young Torless, Elizabeth Bowen’s The Death of the Heart, George Simenon’s Three Bedrooms in Manhattan. and Henry James’s The Ambassadors.
