TO BE, OR NOT TO BE: THAT IS THE QUESTION.

The Great Books reading group kicks off its 2014 season on January 15 with a discussion of Shakespeare's Hamlet. Read any copy of Hamlet and come and discuss it with us.  Try us out without having to buy any other books until you see if you like our format. 

For the 2014 programs we will be using the 3rd Series in the Adult Great Books Program as well as the Vital Ideas-Crime collection, both published by the Great Books Foundation.  Excerpts from works by Dewey, Chekhov, Homer, Chaucer, and Tolstoy are among some of the time-tested pieces to be discussed.  The Vital Ideas series is for readers who care about ideas that will stand the test of time and about topics arousing perennial interest.


The Great Books reading group meets on the first and third Wednesdays of each month from 10-11:30 am. in the Library   Please call the Reference Desk at 847-810-4609 for more information.
