Hunter’s Classics Book Club
Second Tuesday of the Month @ 7:00 p.m.
A little J.D. Salinger, a little Iris Murdoch, maybe some Olga Tokarczuk — some classics you know, some you may or may not be as familiar with. Hunter makes the selections (he can be controlling that way); all you have to do is read the book and show up.
There might be beer — classic, of course.

Tuesday, February 11 – 7:00 p.m. – Passing, by Nella Larsen
