Details

We use the Shared Inquiry Method as we discuss classical pieces of literature. This month we'll dive into Twelfth Night. I use the No Fear Shakespeare version, but you can read any version you have. Whether you’re a first time book club attendee or a longtime member, I think you’ll enjoy our illuminating and entertaining conversations.

There are four guidelines for participating in a Great Books Discussion:

  1. Read the work.
  2. Use the text to support your ideas.
  3. The leader is not an authority. There are no right/wrong responses.
  4. Further the discussion - follow-up on others' thoughts and comments.
