“Classic” books are classic for a reason – their literary excellence transcends passing fads, and they continue to engage readers generation after generation. If there are classics you have always meant to read “someday,” or if you read them in school before you were ready to appreciate them, now is the time to enjoy them with other adult readers.

Our 2010 series features American and British novels from the 19th and 20th centuries.

Discussion groups will meet at 7:00 p.m. on the dates listed below. Anyone is welcome to attend any session, but advanced registration is required if you would like the library to reserve you a book. Contact the librarian to register.
