Literary Series with Diane Frankenstein

SOLD OUT - Contact Diane for future series dates and times.
 
Too busy? Too much digital busyness? Take a break and join Diane Frankenstein’s literary series.  In barely one generation we’ve moved from exulting in the timesaving devices that have expanded our lives to trying to get away from them — often in order to gain more time. The more ways we have to connect, the more many of us seem desperate to unplug.
 
Our “reading itinerary”—yes we are going on a journey and meeting new people— will not be a list of best sellers, but will aim to bring to life, those hard to find, “under discovered” books that reverberate in our hearts as they linger in our minds and elicit our affections. Reading deeply liberates our imagination, that part of our brain, which allows us to leap from cognition to intuition. Nothing makes me feel better — calmer, clearer and happier — than being in one place, absorbed in a book, a conversation, or a piece of music - the kind of happiness that doesn't depend on what happens.
