See all- "The Truth about Love" (3rd session)Bookshop Bivar , Lisbon
Dear Book Rafters,
As W.H. Auden says...
When it comes, will it come without warning
Just as I'm picking my nose?
Will it knock on my door in the morning,
Or tread in the bus on my toes?
Will it come like a change in the weather?
Will its greeting be courteous or rough?
Will it alter my life altogether?
O tell me the truth about love.What is the most original or intriguing description of “love” that you have found in a novel or poem or play or even song?
Please, bring to the meeting an excerpt that well describes for you the idea of Love, and get ready for another memorable discussion in the lovely Bookshop Bivar!NOTE:
Suggested donation to cover the expenses of this meetup group: 3 Euros.
