Book Club Housekeeping & Your Questions for Hardcore Literature (Patreon)

Dear Book Club Readers ---

I hope your reading is treating you well!

Here's a little bit of Book Club housekeeping/admin for the month.

1) A very warm HLBC welcome to new patrons

Welcome aboard, and thank you for joining the club!

Do let us know which book(s) you're enjoying at the moment and what life is looking like for you.

2) Coffee with Hardcore Literature

Do you have any questions about reading the Great Books? Or, indeed, anything else?

If so, please do let me know either here or PM me and I would love to sit down with a coffee and record my answers.

Here are the last three episodes of our Q&A Show:

• Episode XI (Feb) 
• Episode X (Jan)
• Episode IX (Dec)

3) Bookish Content

Your response to Shakespeare, Moby Dick, and our first 'Reading the Bible as Great Literature' lecture has been incredibly exciting. 

And we have plenty more bookish goodies around the corner. We're forging on with a second round of tragedies, bracing ourselves for Blood Meridian, and will be diving into a new series on the History of Literature, which kicks off with Modernism and Post-Modernism.

As mentioned in the video, you might also enjoy the latest episode of the Hardcore Literature Podcast, in which we discuss Arthur Miller's 1953 play 'The Crucible.' 

4) Thank you for your great comments

Your kind birthday wishes moved me so deeply. And your thoughtful responses to these great works inspire me endlessly. 

Thank you for making this such a great community to lovingly discuss great literature. I'm so grateful for you all.

And that's all for now, folks!

Happy reading, and let us know if you have any questions for our Q&A show!
