BOOK CLUB: Update on Prof. Weiner’s book club
Here’s the information from Professor Weiner on his wonderful book
club, which will meet the first Monday of every month, beginning
February 6. The group will meet in room 601C from 11:00-1:00. All you
have to do to participate is read the book(s) and show up.
“We’ll meet at the J School one morning a month. Columbia will
provide box dinners and (for students) free books, too. The main idea
is to give people at the J School an excuse to read. Our first four
months’ of readings will be Saturday, by Ian McKewan; Radical
Evolution, by Joel Garreau, and Elementary Particles, by Michel
Houellebecq; Mountains Beyond Mountains, by Tracy Kidder; and
possibly The Lost Painting, by Jonathan Harr. All students are
welcome, in or out of the J School; so are teachers and friends.”
