Down the “hatch”! Or is it a “burrow”?
Many classic works of literature provide clues to
understanding the plots of the popular TV show Lost.
Selections include Alice in Wonderland, Watership
Down and more (Steinbeck, Dickens). Add some Irish
surrealism to the mix (The Third Policeman). Is Lost
perhaps the new model for promoting interest in
reading? Was this a case of unwitting — or intentional — marketing that caused sales of these books
to spike?

The Bible as Literature
For over 30 centuries, the world’s stormy
love affair with God has been variously provoked and
soothed by the Bible. Trace the Bible’s journey and

books were chosen and its versions were launched.
Contemplate the Bible’s influence on the arts, literature, politics, warfare, and of course — religion:

eccentric.

Upending Tradition:
Music & Literature in the
City of Light, 1900-1920
If you are a current reader of Faulkner's
fiction or would like to be, you are probably a critical
thinker who revels in the process of discovering the
celebrated author's description of universal truths.
However, you may still be baffled by his diction and
syntax, or mystified by the geography of his mythical
cosmos. Become more insightful through discussion
of novels and short stories referred to frequently at
the annual Faulkner and Yoknapatawpha gatherings
of scholars and readers.

Bill Giles: My Life in Baseball
He's the son of former Cincinnati
Reds President and later National League
President, Warren Giles. His godfather was
Brian Ricky. He was caretaker of the Phillies'
most glorious era and the inspiration behind the Phillie Phanatic.
Drawing from his autobiography,
Pouring Six Beers at a Time And
Other Stories from a Lifetime in
Baseball, Giles will talk about the
fun and games of living and
working in the sport for over 60
years. As Ed King noted: "A Bill Giles tale is
punctuated with knowing chuckles and the
uncanny sense that the story is taking on new
details since its last telling."
