SUMMARY:Truman Capote\, In Cold Blood
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! This week’s book is In Cold Blood by Truman Capote. \nTruman Capote was a celebrated American writer known for his literary classics\, including Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1958) and In Cold Blood (1966)\, which he described as a “non-fiction novel.” His works have inspired over 20 films and television adaptations. Born Truman Streckfus Persons in 1924\, he spent his early childhood in Alabama before moving to New York City\, where he was adopted by his stepfather and took the Capote name. He began his career as a copy boy at The New Yorker and gained recognition with his first novel\, Other Voices\, Other Rooms (1948). Capote’s writing spanned fiction and journalism\, with In Cold Blood earning widespread acclaim. \nOn November 15\, 1959\, in the small town of Holcomb\, Kansas\, four members of the Clutter family were savagely murdered by blasts from a shotgun held a few inches from their faces. There was no apparent motive for the crime\, and there were almost no clues.  As Truman Capote reconstructs the murder and the investigation that led to the capture\, trial\, and execution of the killers\, he generates both mesmerizing suspense and astonishing empathy. In Cold Blood is a work that transcends its moment\, yielding poignant insights into the nature of American violence.

SUMMARY:'60s Girl Groups\, Part I
DESCRIPTION:Class Schedule: January 22\, 27\, & 29\, 2026 | 7:30 – 9:00 PM \nThe 1960s may be remembered for the British Invasion\, soul\, and the birth of the Beatles and art rock. However\, the early-to-mid 1960s is also known for its “girl groups\,” trios or quartets singing Brill Building compositions and other pop.  Motown also perfected the girl group formula\, with the Supremes reigning as one of the most successful and influential acts of the 1960s. Indeed\, the girl group tradition continues today with Fifth Harmony\, Blackpink\, and many others.  However\, the genre’s roots extend back even further\, to the 1960s. \n\n\nPart one of the “Girl Groups” course will trace the beginnings of these acts\, with the 1920s and 1930s producing singers such as the Andrews Sisters and the Boswell Sisters.  By the 1950s the McGuire Sisters and the Chordettes picked up the baton\, lending a pop sheen to an otherwise jazz-dominated genre.  The early 1960s kicked off the genre’s peak\, with UK and US acts such as the Vernons Girls\, the Shirelles\, and the Shangri-Las scoring hits on the charts. Perhaps no one defined the early girl group era like Phil Spector\, who produced such groups as the Ronettes and the Crystals. The course will explore these roots and the earliest girl group successes through multimedia presentations and discussion. \nZoom Link will be provided upon registration.

SUMMARY:Mrs. Warren's Profession
