Classic Fiction

👋🏻 Hi everyone! I'm here with some exciting news. I'm launching a social project to connect people so we can grow together! ✨ The main idea: We meet in cozy spots with tasty food (different ones each time) to discuss interesting topics in English. Discussion topics: • Psychology • Philosophy • Relationships • Biology • History • Sociology • Science • Technology • Politics • Business • Finance 🗺️ How the meetups work: Stage 1. The Gathering. Usually at 5:00 PM in a park or city center. Stage 2. The Move. We walk together to a chosen cafe or restaurant. Stage 3. The Discussion. We pick a topic to kickstart the conversation. Stage 4. The Wrap-up. Around 8:00 PM, we start winding down and heading home. (Duration: \~3 hours) \* For those who are shy: In my experience, 80% of the tension and nervousness usually fades away within the first 15 minutes of conversation. 💌 Come join us!

En el marco del proyecto **WPCredits** y como parte del proceso de formación en contribución al ecosistema **open source**, se realizará un **Contributor Day** abierto a estudiantes y miembros de la comunidad interesados en participar activamente en el proyecto WordPress. Un Contributor Day es una jornada colaborativa donde personas con distintos perfiles —desarrolladores, diseñadores, traductores, creadores de contenido, docentes o usuarios— trabajan en conjunto para contribuir al proyecto WordPress en diferentes equipos de la comunidad. Durante esta actividad, las personas participantes recibirán orientación para integrarse a los equipos de contribución y realizar aportes reales al ecosistema, aprendiendo cómo funciona la colaboración en proyectos de software abierto y cómo formar parte de la comunidad global de WordPress. Esta jornada busca acercar a estudiantes y profesionales al modelo de trabajo del **open source**, fortalecer la comunidad local y generar una experiencia práctica de contribución dentro del programa **WPCredits**. **Mesas Presentes en el Contributor Online: Inicia a las 01:30pm, las mesas disponibles son: Foto, Traducciones y Core** **Enlace a la sala de bienvenida:** [https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/8f6ca1e8-a4c2-4192-8087-3a180ac50c5d@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59](https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/8f6ca1e8-a4c2-4192-8087-3a180ac50c5d@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59 "https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/8f6ca1e8-a4c2-4192-8087-3a180ac50c5d@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59") **Enlace a la sala de Foto:** [https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/1acb83c1-1733-4a29-b3c2-b7ce6ae56ebf@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59](https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/1acb83c1-1733-4a29-b3c2-b7ce6ae56ebf@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59 "https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/1acb83c1-1733-4a29-b3c2-b7ce6ae56ebf@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59") **Enlace a la sala de Traducciones:** [https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/e9b29d07-d5f5-46c7-942c-343f86b26262@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59](https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/e9b29d07-d5f5-46c7-942c-343f86b26262@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59 "https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/e9b29d07-d5f5-46c7-942c-343f86b26262@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59") **Enlace a la sala de Core:** [https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/4ca35694-f87a-46af-98fa-aa30243c2981@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59](https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/4ca35694-f87a-46af-98fa-aa30243c2981@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59 "https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/4ca35694-f87a-46af-98fa-aa30243c2981@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59") Día: 18 de Abril del 2026 Hora: 10:00am Lugar: Universidad Fidélitas, Sede Central

Let’s meet and share our thoughts about Carson McCullers’ novella, The Ballad of The Sad Café.

Welcome, readers! Our April read is **_Martyr!_ by Kaveh Akbar.** The story follows a young Iranian American poet grappling with grief, addiction, and the aching question of what makes a life meaningful. Drawn into an unexpected friendship with a terminally ill artist, he begins to confront faith, love, and the seduction of self-destruction. Lyrical, darkly funny, and emotionally piercing, the novel wrestles with beauty and despair in equal measure. It’s a story about longing—to be seen, to be forgiven, and to matter. Looking forward to discussing with everyone! We will meet at Zaftig Brewing Co in their event room in the back. We are welcome to bring in our own food, but **drinks must be purchased at the bar.** Happy reading! 📖

Posting this early because seemingly all Sundays in May are holidays or busy! I picked a shorter thriller that's hopefully a fast read/listen. [Columbus library link to book](https://cml.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C3458940) Location: Grandview Cafe, *1455 W. 3rd Ave*, Columbus, OH 43212 [Menu](https://www.grandviewcafe.com/menu) Book summary: Daniel leads a rich life in the university town of Athens, Georgia. He's got a couple close friends, a steady paycheck working for a regional airline, and of course, for a few glorious days each Fall, college football tailgates. He considers himself to be a mostly lucky guy -- despite the fact that he's suffered from a debilitating disease since he was a small child, one that has left him unable to speak or to move without a wheelchair. Largely confined to his home, Daniel spends the hours he's not online communicating with irate air travelers observing his neighborhood from his front porch. One young woman passes by so frequently that spotting her out the window has almost become part of his daily routine. Until the day he's almost sure he sees her being kidnapped.

Semi in honor of March being International Women's Month Columbus libraries: [https://cml.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C3454709](https://cml.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C3454709) Location: SOW Plated Menu: [https://www.sowplated.com/menu-brunch/](https://www.sowplated.com/menu-brunch/) Book summary: In 2006 Julia Lerner is living in Moscow, a recent university graduate in computer science, when she's recruited by Russia's largest intelligence agency. By 2018 she's in Silicon Valley as COO of Tangerine, one of America's most famous technology companies. In between her executive management (make offers to promising startups, crush them and copy their features if they refuse); self promotion (check out her latest op-ed in the WSJ, on Work/Life Balance 2.0); and work in gender equality (transfer the most annoying females from her team), she funnels intelligence back to the motherland. But now Russia's asking for more, and Julia's getting nervous. Alice Lu is a first generation Chinese American whose parents are delighted she's working at Tangerine (such a successful company!). Too bad she's slogging away in the lower echelons, recently dumped, and now sharing her expensive two-bedroom apartment with her cousin Cheri, a perennial "founder's girlfriend". One afternoon, while performing a server check, Alice discovers some unusual activity, and now she's burdened with two powerful but distressing suspicions: Tangerine's privacy settings aren't as rigorous as the company claims they are, and the person abusing this loophole might be Julia Lerner herself. The closer Alice gets to Julia, the more Julia questions her own loyalties. Russia may have placed her in the Valley, but she's the one who built her career; isn't she entitled to protect the lifestyle she's earned?
