En mars, nous vous proposons une rencontre autour de : **L'Amour aux temps du choléra - Gabriel García Márquez** À la fin du xixe siècle, dans une petite ville des Caraïbes, un jeune télégraphiste pauvre et une ravissante écolière jurent de se marier et de vivre un amour éternel. Durant trois ans ils ne vivent que l’un pour l’autre, mais Fermina épouse Juvenal Urbino, un jeune et brillant médecin. Alors Florentino, l’amoureux trahi, se mue en séducteur impénitent et s’efforce de se faire un nom et une fortune pour mériter celle qu’il ne cessera d’aimer, en secret, cinquante années durant. L’auteur de Cent ans de solitude et de Chronique d’une mort annoncée, prix Nobel 1982, donne libre cours à son génie de conteur, à la richesse de son imagination et à l’enchantement baroque de son écriture. **Tonio Kröger - Thomas Mann** Peintre puissant de la bourgeoisie allemande avec Les Buddenbrook, Thomas Mann publie à vingt-huit ans ce bref roman, une de ses œuvres les plus révélatrices de son débat intérieur. Jeune écrivain prisonnier de l’introspection et de la réflexion sur son art, Tonio Kröger est fasciné par son contraire : ceux qui vivent sans réfléchir, abandonnés à leurs instincts vitaux, comme son camarade Hans et la belle Ingeborge, dont il s’éprend. L’art et la pensée seraient-ils morbides ? La vraie vie résiderait-elle dans la sérénité heureuse et terre à terre des gens « normaux » ? Dans cet étonnant portrait d’un homme qui ne parvient pas à s’approuver, le grand romancier, prix Nobel de littérature en 1929, mêle la réflexion philosophique à l’analyse des tourments de l’âme, avec une lucidité et un dépouillement qui font de ce roman une œuvre classique au meilleur sens du terme. **Présentations d'auteurs** André présentera Gabriel García Márquez et Jean-Pierre présentera Thomas Mann. **Inscription** Ne vous inscrivez, s’il vous plaît, que si vous êtes sûr/e de pouvoir lire au moins une des deux œuvres et d'être présent/e le jour J. Au plaisir de se rencontrer, débattre, discuter, autour d'un verre !

"Paris, janvier 1761. Nicolas Le Floch, un jeune homme natif de Guérande, débarque dans la capitale, écarté de sa Bretagne par son tuteur. Après un passage au couvent des Carmes, le jeune Le Floch va apprendre le métier de policier sous la houlette de M. de Sartine, le lieutenant général de police de Louis XV, chargé des affaires spéciales. Le Floch va devoir faire très vite ses preuves et apprendre le prix du silence et du secret. Sa première enquête criminelle va le plonger dans le monde interlope de la corruption, du jeu, des intrigues crapuleuses et d'une conspiration contre la vie du roi. Encore un excellent policier historique, dans cette collection Grands Détectives. Fin gourmet, rusé, intelligent, on a dit de ce Le Floch qu'il était une sorte de Maigret du XVIIIe siècle. La comparaison est assez juste. Si l'intrigue est somme toute classique, la reconstitution historique est fascinante : on se retrouve vraiment dans le Paris d'époque et accessoirement, on croise des personnages célèbres comme la marquise de Pompadour." Cette séance s'inscrit dans une thématique choisie par les participants lors du club de lecture du mois dernier et qui est celle du **policier historique**. Vous avez envie de découvrir Jean-François Parot, diplomate et écrivain 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)

Un événement pour se rencontrer entre femmes parisiennes qui écrivent ✍️
Faisons connaissance autour d’un thé ou café et parlons écriture(s), lecture(s) et inspiration(s) ! ☀️ Et n’hésitez pas à prendre vos ordis (chargés) ou carnets : nous allons écrire pendant une partie de l’après-midi !

✅ Do you want to improve your English Speaking skills? ✅ Do you want to expand your vocabulary? ✅ Are you bored of difficult grammar classes? These 2 hour small group classes are for those who want more than just a conversation class. These are planned two hour events with prepared materials to help with vocabulary and discussion. They are dynamic and interesting and will help you gain confidence, expand your vocabulary and improve your pronunciation. What do I have to do? ✍ Sign up in Meet Up and confirm your attendance by WhatsApp: +34 645 598 927 💵 Cost: 30€ ⌚ When: Weekends 🕖 Duration: 2 hours 📍 Where: By Skype (or Hangouts) 👥 Group Size: Maximum 3 people Classes are to be paid in advance to secure booking.

Greetings writers! Come down and join your fellow wordsmiths for one hour of uninterrupted writing time in the upper level of the Market District Supermarket in Upper Arlington. The main entrance of the shopping center opens onto stairs/elevator leading up to the 2nd floor cafe section where we will have a table displaying a sign with the Shut Up & Write logo. Writing is largely a solitary craft. Practicing with others in a community setting may be the thing you need to fire your own routine. We’ll meet on Wednesday evenings, starting the clock at 6:30, following a brief period of introductions. This is solid writing time and all inclusive. Any project is acceptable, be it fiction, non -fiction, work or homework assignment. All is welcome and will remain private to you. The market boasts a Starbucks, a full service bar and various affordable food options. Parking is plentiful, free Wifi is provided as well as outlets for charging your devices, though they are somewhat limited, so plan accordingly. Show up as early as you like, or stay late. This group tends to socialize some, both before and after the alloted time, but this is not mandatory to you. Feel free to come and go as you please and late arrivals are welcome. The cafe may be noisy on occasion so headphones/ earbuds are reccommended as you see fit. Please try to RSVP if possible so that we may grab enough seats for all—the venue can be busy at times. Feel free to message me privately wth any questions and/ or concerns you may have. Happy writing!

Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating. Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator. Per what this group is about: "Everyone is welcome! International transplants to Columbus who want to improve language skills, Columbus residents who want to discuss international travel and culture, and anyone who enjoys getting together for good conversations."

We thought of one of the interesting things that can be enjoyed at this time of the year. We will be meeting at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church for a "Fish Fry" in Marian Hall on Friday, March 27th at 5:00 PM. It might be fun for you to experience what has become a tradition on the Fridays before Easter. They will have fried fish or baked fish, French fries and Cole slaw, as well as beverages, all for $16.00 for adults. They will have other beverages and desserts available for sale, as well. We have never tried this, and sometimes there are quite a few people at these events so we hope that we will be able to find each other easily. I'll try to have signs outside Marian Hall that Identify our group. We hope to have you join us!
