This discussion group meets throughout the year on the first Wednesday of each month. We are discussing books selected from Britain’s prestigious Booker Prize lists: works written in English and published in the UK or Ireland, formerly by Commonwealth authors but now globally. New members are welcome to join this on-going group any time. The April choice is Nadine Gordimer’s The Conservationist (1974), and the May choice is William Golding’s Rites of Passage (1980).
John McCausland has taught LINEC courses on the Bible, Chaucer, and the American novel. An Episcopal priest and one-time lawyer, he loves history, literature, theology, teaching, and learning.
