From The Dreamers' Classic Book Club

Stories of people discovering places, whether it is a big city, Paris, or a small village or unknown communities! Books, letters, and journals that talk of food, culture, places, experiences, or literature that allows us to travel through the eyes of writers who ventured beyond the familiar. It can be fiction or non-fiction. As long as the feeling of discovery is there, you are in the right place! As always, feel free to bring along a physical copy of your book for our tradition of a group photo and to share the joy of the cover with others! 📚 **P.S.** This is a small book club, and your absence can make a big difference! Please sign up only if you really plan to make it, and cancel well in advance if your plans change so that others will have a chance to join as well. Thank you\~ 🌹

From Club Littéraire Parisien
4.8

Ce soir, dans le cadre du cycle général, nous avons voté : **1 - "Northanger Abbey" de Janes Austen** "Par sa gaucherie, ses rêveries naïves et son engouement pour les vieux châteaux, Catherine Morland semble loin des modèles de vertu. Mais si cette jeune Bovary délicatement british n'a rien d'une héroïne, c'est que Jane Austen s'amuse ! Et nous emporte, d'une plume malicieuse, d'un bout à l'autre du plus moderne des romans austeniens.." Babelio **2 - "Cadavre exquis" de Augustina Bazterrica** "Un virus a fait disparaître la quasi-totalité des animaux de la surface de la Terre. Pour pallier la pénurie de viande, des scientifiques ont créé une nouvelle race, à partir de génomes humains, qui servira de bétail pour la consommation. Ce roman est l’histoire d’un homme qui travaille dans un abattoir et ressent un beau jour un trouble pour une femelle de « première génération ».." Babelio ***On peut lire l'un ou les deux livres programmés.*** **Pour les présentations d'auteurs :** \- Richard nous fera une présentation de Jane Austen pour donner du contexte à nos discussions ; \- Margot fera une présentation d'auteur soit d' Agustina Bazterrica pendant une dizaine de minutes\. **Pour les focus sur l'oeuvre :** \- Margot fait le focus sur l'oeuvre de" Cadavre exquis" ; - Je fais le focus sur l'oeuvre soit "Northanger Abbey" Et n'oubliez pas ! Partagez, si sous le souhaitez, quelques mots, passages et/ou citations qui vous ont marqués, touchés, et qui vous semblent importants à partager avec le groupe et les participants. Enfin, inscrivez-vous, je vous prie, uniquement si vous êtes sûrs d'être de la partie. Bien à vous tous, bonnes lectures aussi, et à bientôt ! Jélila PS : la participation pour des raisons de frais liés à Meetup (240 euros par an) est de 2 euros par personne et par an. Mais elle reste facultative !

BOOKCLUB: Naked Lunch by William S. Burroughs

BOOKCLUB: Naked Lunch by William S. Burroughs

Thu, Oct 8, 5:00 PM
From Paris Book Lovers 📚❤️
5.0

Let's get together with a coffee or drink and discuss this book :) * Address to be announced. * Limited spaces to ensure a nice discussion. Please only join if you can attend. * **Confirmation and Location via our Whatsapp group :)** About the book: *Naked Lunch* is one of the most important novels of the twentieth century, a book that redefined not just literature but American culture. An unnerving tale of a narcotics addict unmoored in New York, Tangier, and ultimately a nightmarish wasteland known as Interzone, its formal innovation, taboo subject matter, and tour de force execution have exerted a significant influence on authors like Thomas Pynchon, J. G. Ballard, and William Gibson; on the relationship of art and obscenity; and on the shape of music, film, and media generally. Naked Lunch: The Restored Text includes many editorial corrections to errors present in previous editions, and incorporates Burroughs’s notes on the text, several essays he wrote over the years about the book, and an appendix of 20 percent new material and alternate drafts from the original manuscript, which predates the first published version. For the Burroughs enthusiast and the neophyte, this volume is a valuable and fresh experience of this classic of our culture.
