SUMMARY:Tuesday Night Book Club: Charles Yu\, Interior Chinatown
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack and Michael Thomas\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! \nThis month’s novel is Charles Yu’s Interior Chinatown. \nWillis Wu doesn’t perceive himself as a protagonist even in his own life: He’s merely Generic Asian man. Sometimes he gets to be Background Oriental Making a Weird Face or even Disgraced Son\, but he is always relegated to a prop. Yet every day he leaves his tiny room and enters the Golden Palace restaurant\, where Black and White\, a procedural cop show\, is in perpetual production. He’s a bit player here\, too\, but he dreams of being Kung Fu Guy—the most respected role that anyone who looks like him can attain. At least that’s what he has been told\, time and time again. Except by one person\, his mother. Who says to him: Be more. \nPlayful but heartfelt\, a send-up of Hollywood tropes and Asian stereotypes\, Interior Chinatown is Charles Yu’s most moving\, daring\, and masterly novel yet. \nWe are still waiting for more information about whether we will be able to hold this event in person. However\, we are also committed to continuing offering access virtually to Tuesday Night Book Club for all our new audiences! You can register now for Zoom access to the event. When you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation.    \nPlease stay tuned for more details about an in-person location for this event when more information becomes available.

SUMMARY:Virtual Tuesday Night Book Club: Jennifer Egan\, A Visit from the Goon Squad
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack and Michael Thomas\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! \nThis month’s novel is A Visit from the Goon Squad by Jennifer Egan. \nJennifer Egan’s spellbinding novel circles the lives of Bennie Salazar\, an ageing former punk rocker and record executive\, and Sasha\, the passionate\, troubled young woman he employs. Although Bennie and Sasha never discover each other’s pasts\, the reader does\, in intimate detail\, along with the secret lives of a host of other characters whose paths intersect with theirs\, over many years\, in locales as varied as New York\, San Francisco\, Naples\, and Africa. \nA Visit from the Goon Squad is a book about the interplay of time and music\, about survival\, about the stirrings and transformations set inexorably in motion by even the most passing conjunction of our fates. In a breathtaking array of styles and tones ranging from tragedy to satire to PowerPoint\, Egan captures the undertow of self-destruction that we all must either master or succumb to; the basic human hunger for redemption; and the universal tendency to reach for both—and escape the merciless progress of time—in the transporting realms of art and music. Sly\, startling\, exhilarating work from one of our boldest writers. \nWhen you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation. GET MORE INFORMATION ON HOW TO USE ZOOM

SUMMARY:Virtual Tuesday Night Book Club: Ernest Hemingway\, The Sun Also Rises
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack and Michael Thomas\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! \nThis month’s novel is Ernest Hemingway\, The Sun Also Rises. \nOriginally published in 1926\, The Sun Also Rises is Ernest Hemingway’s first novel and a classic example of his spare but powerful writing style.​ \nA poignant look at the disillusionment and angst of the post-World War I generation\, the novel introduces two of Hemingway’s most unforgettable characters: Jake Barnes and Lady Brett Ashley. The story follows the flamboyant Brett and the hapless Jake as they journey from the wild nightlife of 1920s Paris to the brutal bullfighting rings of Spain with a motley group of expatriates. In his first great literary masterpiece\, Hemingway portrays an age of moral bankruptcy\, spiritual dissolution\, unrealized love\, and vanishing illusions. \n“The ideal companion for troubled times: equal parts Continental escape and serious grappling with the question of what it means to be\, and feel\, lost.” —The Wall Street Journal \nWhen you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation. GET MORE INFORMATION ON HOW TO USE ZOOM

SUMMARY:Virtual Tuesday Night Book Club: David Guterson\, Snow Falling on Cedars
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack and Michael Thomas\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! \nThis month’s novel is David Guterson’s Snow Falling on Cedars. \nSan Piedro Island\, north of Puget Sound\, is a place so isolated that no one who lives there can afford to make enemies. But in 1954 a local fisherman is found suspiciously drowned\, and a Japanese American named Kabuo Miyamoto is charged with his murder. In the course of the ensuing trial\, it becomes clear that what is at stake is more than a man’s guilt. For on San Pedro\, memory grows as thickly as cedar trees and the fields of ripe strawberries—memories of a charmed love affair between a white boy and the Japanese girl who grew up to become Kabuo’s wife; memories of land desired\, paid for\, and lost. Above all\, San Piedro is haunted by the memory of what happened to its Japanese residents during World War II\, when an entire community was sent into exile while its neighbors watched. Gripping\, tragic\, and densely atmospheric\, Snow Falling on Cedars is a masterpiece of suspense— one that leaves us shaken and changed. \n“Haunting…. A whodunit complete with courtroom maneuvering and surprising turns of evidence and at the same time a mystery\, something altogether richer and deeper.”—Los Angeles Times \n“Compelling…heartstopping. Finely wrought\, flawlessly written.”—The New York Times Book Review \nWhen you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation. GET MORE INFORMATION ON HOW TO USE ZOOM

SUMMARY:Poetry Appreciation
DESCRIPTION:Class Schedule: Thursdays – May 13 \, May 20 and May 27 | 7:30 – 9:00 PM \nThis three-session virtual course\, taught by Michael Thomas\, provides attendees with an introduction to the craft of poetry\, while also carefully considering poems that have been deeply meaningful to our lives. \nOur current culture asks that we move quickly\, while poetry demands the opposite– that we slow down and explore life experiences with careful reflection and deeper understanding. \nWhile you may not be an experienced reader or writer of poems\, this course will introduce methods of writing and reading that we hope will help you to take steps in developing an ear and eye for great poems and how\, by inhabiting the poems you experience joys in reading. \n“Poetry and poetry alone has saved my life\,” wrote the poet\, Anne Sexton. There is evidence of lyric poetry in every language and in every culture throughout history. It is with this fact that we can approach poetry as a vital force in our lives\, not as a genre of literature reserved only for those with special talents. \nZoom Link will be provided upon registration.

DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack and Michael Thomas\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! \nThis month’s novel is Colson Whitehead’s The Underground Railroad. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award\, the #1 New York Times bestseller from Colson Whitehead\, a magnificent tour de force chronicling a young slave’s adventures as she makes a desperate bid for freedom in the antebellum South. In Whitehead’s ingenious conception\, the Underground Railroad is no mere metaphor—engineers and conductors operate a secret network of tracks and tunnels beneath the Southern soil. The Underground Railroad is at once a kinetic adventure tale of one woman’s ferocious will to escape the horrors of bondage and a shattering\, powerful meditation on the history we all share.

SUMMARY:Virtual Tuesday Night Book Club: Rebecca Skloot's The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack and Michael Thomas\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! \nThis month’s novel is Rebecca Skloot’s The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. Her name was Henrietta Lacks\, but scientists know her as HeLa. She was a poor Southern tobacco farmer who worked the same land as her slave ancestors\, yet her cells—taken without her knowledge—became one of the most important tools in medicine: The first “immortal” human cells grown in culture\, which are still alive today\, though she has been dead for more than sixty years \nAs Rebecca Skloot so brilliantly shows\, the story of the Lacks family—past and present—is inextricably connected to the dark history of experimentation on African Americans\, the birth of bioethics\, and the legal battles over whether we control the stuff we are made of. \n#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “The story of modern medicine and bioethics—and\, indeed\, race relations—is refracted beautifully\, and movingly.”—Entertainment Weekly\n \nWhen you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation. GET MORE INFORMATION ON HOW TO USE ZOOM
