Books

Book Group Update

by Jeff Miller

Well, 2007 is flying by. It’s almost time for the Reformation Celebration, Thanksgiving & Christmas come in rapid fire succession after that. For the RPC Book Group, that means it’s time to decide about next year’s books.

For those not attending lately, let me give you an update before I preview next year: We will finish looking at Pride & Prejudice next week. We have decided that we have time to squeeze one more in this year, so we will look at Graham Greene’s End of the Affair beginning on Oct 30 and lasting 3-4 weeks. We’ll then break until January.

Beginning then, we embark on a very eclectic group of titles. Here they are:

Jan- Orthodoxy GK Chesterton

Feb/Mar (6 weeks)- Brothers Karamazov- F Dostoevsky

March (remainder)-Wise Blood- Flannery O’Connor

Apr-Bondage of the Will- Martin Luther

May- Go Down, Moses-Wm. Faulkner

June- Macbeth- Shakespeare

July-Brave New World- Huxley

Aug- Lost Soul of American Protestantism- DG Hart

Sept- Paradise Lost- Milton

Oct- Nervous Splendor- Frederic Morton

November- Confessions- Augustine

Late this year, I’ll post a piece here &/or in Salt & Light and give a blurb about each title. Please take note of any or all that you want to participate in- we’d love to have your input & fellowship!
