Spiritual Journeys
Book Group

 

The Spiritual Journeys Book Group meets once a month. At the end of each meeting we choose a book which we will discuss in the next meeting. The books run the gamut from religious theory (for example, Simone Weil's Waiting for God) to contemporary fiction (for example, Nadine Gordimer's July's People).

  
 The book group is open to anyone who would like to discuss one book or many. We read a wide variety of books, including novels, religious theory, biography,... whatever the group is attracted to. We enjoy having a wide variety of perspectives and often have spirited discussions. 

 

 Azar Nafisi's, Reading Lolita in Tehran, was so interesting that the book group has decided to spend two months discussing it. So the next meeting, Tuesday September 28, will also be devoted to it. Join us at 7:30 in the Morse Room.. All meetings are at 7:30 in the Morse Room.

 

The meetings have a facilitator but the direction of discussion is up to the group.

Most meetings have about eight people attending; some come to all meetings, some join only for a book that interests them.

Feel free to come to a meeting even if you haven't read the book. You may find the discussion stimulating.

Please see the calendar for meeting dates and times.
