September is shaping up to be another great month of online book discussions. This Saturday there will be three different online discussions. Beginning at 10:00 Central Daylight Time on Saturday morning there will be a discussion of two children's books which, like all good children's books, should be read and discussed by adults: Sylvester and the Magic Pebble, and Little House on the Prairie. Beginning at 3:00 CDT on Saturday afternoon there will be a discussion of the Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass. Beginning at 7:00 CDT on Saturday evening there will be a discussion of Huck Finn which, along with the Great Gatsby, often comes up in conversations about the great American novel.
On Tuesday evening, September 21 beginning at 7:00 Centrall Daylight Time there will an online discussion of My Antonia. Graduate students at the Willa Cather Project at the University of Nebraska at Lincoln will participate in the discussion.
