Nous y expliquerons les règles du jeu en détails en début de partie. **Soirée enquête, bluff et intrigues mardi soir aux Caves Alliées.** Venez (re)découvrir cette petite pépite du jeu d'intrigue qu'est Blood on the Clocktower, à mi-chemin entre un loup-garou et une murder mystery: incarnez le temps d'un soir un des habitants du village de Ravenswood Bluff, et enquêtez, bluffez, collaborez avec les autres joueurs pour faire la lumière sur la malédiction qui ronge le village de l'intérieur. Ou jouez pour le camp du mal, et avancez dans l'ombre pour semer le doute et la discorde parmi vos concitoyens. * **Soirée ouverte à toutes et à tous**, que vous ayez déjà joué à ce type de jeu ou non. Un conteur/maître du jeu anime la partie, et est là pour s'assurer que tout se passe bien et répondre à vos questions =) * Nous serons accueillis au bar "les Caves Alliées" (taverne médiévale à Paris 6ème), qui nous met à disposition un espace de jeu. * Participation gratuite, par contre nous serons dans un bar, donc pensez à consommer (Ils ont un large choix de bières, des softs, boissons médiévales, et planches pour grignoter).

Anton Tchekhov **La Mouette** 1896 200 pages Babel Une pièce qui révolutiona le théâtre. "On ne pouvait, pensaient-ils, intéresser le public à un débat intérieur. Au théâtre, pour eux, ce qui ne servait pas directement l'intrigue était inutile. Et ici, les gens, au lieu d'agir, laissaient parler leur âme..." (extrait de Tchekhov d'Henri Troyat à propos de la réaction de ses amis après la première lecture de la pièce) VERSION PAPIER Je vous recommande vivement la traduction d'André Markowicz et Françoise Morvan publiée par Babel/ Actes Sud. **Cette traduction** **existe seulement en livre papier** ; il n'y a pas de livre électronique avec cette traduction. Une photo de la couverture de cette édition est ci-dessus pour voir servir de repère. Il est fort probable que vous allez pouvoir le trouver en librairie. Sinon vous pouvez en commander un sur la Fnac, Amazon. Il y a des livres d'occasion sur Rakuten à 1.52 euros. LIVRE ÉLECTRONIQUE Il en existe au moins un avec une ancienne traduction libre de droit. Si vous pouvez, je vous recommande de vous tourner vers l'édition papier de Babel avec la traduction de Markowicz qui sont toujours une valeur sûre. **PRIX** 10 euros à régler sur place ou par Wero. Les 10 euros servent à couvrir l'abonnement sur le site Meetup (200 euros par an), l'abonnement occasionnel sur TMS (20 euros par mois), l'achat des livres si nécessaire et récompenser le temps et les efforts d'organisation (je prépare beaucoup d'informations sur le livre et l'écrivain). **COMMENT NOUS TROUVER ?** On se retrouve à l'intérieur du café TOURVILLE situé à 1 Pl. de l'École Militaire. On s'installe d'habitude à l'étage.

"Lorsque le docteur en médecine Marthe Vivier rencontre l'auteur dramatique Régis Ferrier, ils sont décrits ainsi : " Elle et lui se sourirent avant, bien avant, de se haïr. " Tous les sports ont leurs règlements. Le sport d'équipe qu'est la vie d'un couple n'en a pas. En amour, tout est toléré, du coup bas à la balle de revolver en passant par les plus gros mots, le poison, le désespoir, le chantage, j'en oublie, et des plus tristes. Il n'existe pas de beau rôle en amour. La guerre y règne, au corps à corps. Quand l'amour meurt, il ne meurt pas, il crève. Vient alors l'heure exquise des vengeances, des jalousies galopantes, des règlements de compte du conte de fées. Puis celle où l'on ramasse les blessés. Certains guérissent." Vous avez envie de découvrir René Fallet, écrivain et scénariste français ? Alors nous vous donnons rendez-vous dans l'ambiance cosy du Poinçon Paris pour échanger ensemble autour de ce roman, au cours d'un club de lecture. A l’issue de la séance, vous pourrez proposer un livre qui sera soumis au vote des participants, pour déterminer l’ouvrage à lire pour le prochain Club de Lecture de la Plume en Question (Rappel des conditions : 300 pages maximum – format poche disponible)

Dear members, I hope that you will join us in closing the year with two comedies very much in keeping with the sonnets’ renunciation of ideal love! Indeed, idealized love and the practicalities of romance are heavily contrasted in Shakespeare’s *The Merry Wives of Windsor* (April) and The Two Gentlemen of Verona (May). In very different ways, both **plays challenge romantic posturing and expose the distance between lofty declarations of love and the actual conduct of men.** In *The Merry Wives of Windsor*, Shakespeare forces romance into the comedic rooms of everyday life, where the intelligence, wit, and the common sense of **women cut through male fantasy and self-importance**. Maryama Antoine **About the Play:** *The Merry Wives of Windsor* or **Sir John Falstaff and the Merry Wives of Windsor i**s a comedy by William Shakespeare first published in 1602, though believed to have been written in or before 1597. The Windsor of the play's title is a reference to the town of Windsor, also the **location of Windsor Castle in Berkshire,** England. Though nominally set in the reign of Henry IV or early in the reign of Henry V, the play makes no pretence to exist outside contemporary Elizabethan-era English middle-class life. It features the character Sir John Falstaff, the fat knight who had previously been featured in Henry IV, Part 1 and Part 2. It has been **adapted for the opera at least ten times.** The play is one of Shakespeare's lesser-regarded works among literary critics. **Tradition has it that *The Merry Wives of Windsor* was written at the request of Queen Elizabeth I, who watching Henry IV, Part 1, is said to have asked Shakespeare to write a play depicting Falstaff in love.** **The Plot:** Falstaff arrives in Windsor very short of money. He decides that, to obtain financial advantage, he will court two wealthy married women, Mistress Ford and Mistress Page. Falstaff decides to send the women identical love letters and asks his servants – Pistol and Nym – to deliver them to the wives. When they refuse, Falstaff sacks them, and, in revenge, the men tell the husbands Ford and Page of Falstaff's intentions. Page is not concerned, but the jealous Ford persuades the Host of the Garter Inn to introduce him to Falstaff as a 'Master Brook' so that he can find out Falstaff's plans. Meanwhile, three different men are trying to win the hand of Page's daughter, Anne Page. Mistress Page would like her daughter to marry Doctor Caius, a French physician, whereas the girl's father would like her to marry Master Slender. Anne herself is in love with Master Fenton, but Page had previously rejected Fenton as a suitor due to his having squandered his considerable fortune on high-class living. Hugh Evans, a Welsh parson, tries to enlist the help of Mistress Quickly (servant to Doctor Caius) in wooing Anne for Slender, but the doctor discovers this and challenges Evans to a duel. The Host of the Garter Inn prevents this duel by telling each man a different meeting place, causing much amusement for himself, Justice Shallow, Page and others. Evans and Caius decide to work together to be revenged on the Host... **Sources:** Some elements of *The Merry Wives of Windsor* may have been **adapted from Il Pecorone, a collection of stories by Ser Giovanni Fiorentino**; one of these stories was included in **William Painter's** **The Palace of Pleasure.**

**Our April novel is: *The Hong Kong Widow* by Kristen Loesch** **This month’s novel blends gothic atmosphere with historical fiction and chilling horror, set against the haunting backdrop of China. The book is 368 pages in print and 10 hours and 42 minutes on audiobook.** In 1950s Hong Kong, Mei is a young refugee of the Chinese Communist revolution struggling to put her past in Shanghai behind her. When she receives a shocking invitation—to take part in a competition in one of the city's most notorious haunted houses, pitting six spirit mediums against one another in a series of six séances over six nights, until a single winner emerges—she has every reason to refuse. Except that the hostess, a former Shanghainese silent film star, is none other than the wife of the man who once destroyed Mei’s entire life. It is promised the winner will receive a fortune, but there is only one prize Mei wants: revenge. Decades later, the final night of that competition has become an infamous urban legend: The police were called to the scene of a brutal massacre but found no evidence, dismissing it as a collective hallucination. Mei knows what she saw, but now someone else is convinced they know what she did. She must uncover the truth about the last night she ever spent in that house—even if the ghosts of her past are waiting for her there. . . .

...and speaking of breakthrough roles: who can forget the first time we saw Tom Cruise singing Bob Seeger in his underwear? Often considered an updated 1983 version of The Graduate, the movie sparkles with memorable lines and original music. I only regret that I was never told that "Princeton could use someone like Bob..." See the movie first and join us for some "Cruisin'"

Join us as we get together for a Discount Tuesday / Choose Your Movie event to see your choice of two great new films! Option 1 (and the one I'll be seeing) is the top-reviewed comedy-drama, THE CHRISTOPHERS! The film is set in the art world and follows the estranged children of a former artist who hire a forger. It is directed by Steven Soderberg, stars Ian McKellen and Michaela Coel and has been earning rave reviews on the indie circuit. Option 2 is the latest action-thriller starring Bob Odenkirk, NORMAL! The film follows a temporary small-town sheriff who uncovers dark mysteries after a local bank robbery. Here are descriptions, trailers and our plan for this event: THE CHRISTOPHERS: The children of a once famous artist hire a forger to complete some unfinished, long ago abandoned canvases so they'll have a better inheritance when he dies. It is directed by Steven Soderbergh and stars Ian McKellen, Michaela Coel, Jessica Gunning and James Corden. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film is earning an excellent 97% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes where critics call it a “dynamic, emotional and surprising journey” and a “compelling chamber piece that works like intellectual comfort food.” Others call the film, an “incredibly funny, comedy drama with plot reversals that make it feel like it’s on the verge of a thriller!” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H79-EqzmdwY&t=20s NORMAL: This action-crime-thriller follows a man who comes to the sleepy town of Normal, Minnesota to serve as the temporary sheriff. But a bank robbery leads him to a criminal underground reaches throughout the entire town. The film is directed by Ben Wheatley and stars Bob Odenkirk, Henry Winkler and Lena Headey. The film comes from the same team that brought us Nobody and the John Wick series, so expect an over-the-top, action-filled thrill ride! TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rmm-lM33Qw0&t=19s PLAN: We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing of both films and will meet in the lobby area about 30 minutes before showtime. Once showtimes are announced, advance ticket purchase is advised (GFC website preferred)! Please list your movie of choice and seat number in the Comments section of this event. Showtimes and complete details will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer. PARKING: Close, convenient parking is available in the nearby garage (located between 9th and 11th, just off High St). Bring your ticket with you and have it validated at the theater and for $2, you’re covered for the night! Look forward to seeing you there, Dan

We'll meet at The Capital One Café, 167 Easton Town Center, Space A-103. This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator. Join us on Saturday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking! • What we'll do Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 10AM on Saturday mornings. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 10:00 - SESSION 1: quick intros. 10:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 11:10 - chat / take off / keep writing. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 11A-11:30ish. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you! • What to bring Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block noise or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Electrical outlets are limited, so charge your devices before whenever possible. See you at The Café on Saturday!
