Library offers ‘Let’s Talk About It’ book group

GREENVILLE — The Shaw Public Library has been selected by the Maine Humanities Council to offer “Let’s Talk About It”, a free reading and discussion group with copies of the books available through the library. This program is provided by the Maine Humanities Council’s Maine Center for the Book in cooperation with the Maine State Library and through the council by a grant from the Belvedere Fund of the Maine Community Foundation.

The series “Destruction or Redemption: Images of Romantic Love” begins June 24 at 6:30 at the library and continues for five sessions until Aug. 26.

Books to be read and discussed in this series include “Madame Bovary” by Gustave Flaubert, “The French Lieutenant’s Woman” by John Fowles, “The End of the Affair” by Graham Greene, “Morgan Passing” by Anne Tyler and “Lolita” by by Vladimir Nabokov. David Richards will facilitate the discussions.

It has been considered by past participants to be a great experience to be part of these programs and to have the opportunity to get together with the community to discuss what was read. The experience is further enriched with a skilled facilitator. Books for the program are available at the Shaw Public Library. Please call the library at 695-3579 to register and pick up the titles.
