See all- Novels & Nibbles Book Club - July Meeting (2 of 2)No. 246, Decatur, GA
Join us for an evening of good food, thoughtful conversation, and a bit of literary magic! We’ll meet at no. 246 in Decatur, GA on Thursday, July 24th at 7:20 PM to discuss A Swim in a Pond in the Rain by George Saunders, covering the book in its entirety (appendices optional but encouraged).
In this unique and engaging book, beloved author and teacher George Saunders invites readers into his workshop—guiding us through classic short stories by Chekhov, Turgenev, Tolstoy, and Gogol. With warmth, humor, and sharp insight, Saunders shows how Russian masters work their magic—and what they can teach us about reading, writing, and seeing the world a little more deeply.
Come ready to share your thoughts on the stories, the insights, and the big ideas Saunders throws our way.
