We're thrilled to launch a new bookclu= b here at Loganberry, led by local writer and playwright, Eric Coble. In the late 1950=E2=80=99s we were reading linear, hu= manistic novels like Doctor Zhivago, Th= e Chronicles of Narnia, and To Kil= l A Mockingbird. Then seemingly overnight everything changed.

What led to these satiric, untethered worldviews and how have = those views in turn shaped the stories we tell today? We=E2=80=99ll start= by reading Catch-22 and proceed through other ground-breaking fiction bi= -monthly for a year. IMPORTANT: While the stories may be bleak and despai= ring, the conversation will NOT be. Prepare for a free-wheeling, non-acad= emic dive into vivid writing and withering outlooks.
