SUMMARY:Great Literature Discussion: Chronicles From The Land Of The Happiest People On Earth by Wole Soyinka
DESCRIPTION:Literary works will be discussed based on what can be found in the text in order to enrich each other’s interpretation of the novel/novella. All are welcome to join and any edition or translation of the book under discussion can be used. Read the work in advance and be prepared to discuss the aspects of interest to you by referring to specific related text and reading it to the group. Moderated by Ethical NYC member Gunther Tielemans. 1st and 3rd Wednesdays. \nSotinka’s new novel is at once a literary hoot\, a crafty whodunit. And a scathing indictment of political and social corruption. The life of every party\, Duyole Pitan-Payne is about to assume a prestigious post at the U.N. in NYC\, bit it seems that somebody is determined that he not make it there. \nFor access information\, please contact Gunther.
