For our next book club meeting, we will be discussing
"The Dead" by James Joyce, the most famous short story from
his renowned 1914 collection Dubliners.
This meeting will be moderated by Dr. John Wells, a recovering academic who spent a couple decades bouncing around the country
in visiting faculty positions, specializing in literary criticism and contemporary avant-garde fiction before settling down in this region to be close to family.
