DESCRIPTION:Join us this month as the Philosophy Book Club reads Last Days at Hot Slit: The Radical Feminism of Andrea Dworkin\, a bold collection from one of the most controversial figures in modern feminist thought. Dworkin was a radical feminist writer and activist\, best known for her opposition to pornography and her unflinching critiques of male supremacy. A divisive figure during the feminist sex wars of the 1980s\, she was both vilified and admired for confronting sexual violence and systems of power. This collection brings together key works from across her career. Readers are invited to explore Dworkin’s legacy and the complex questions she raised about sex\, power\, and justice. Copies are available at the first-floor information desk. New members are always welcome!

SUMMARY:Monday Morning Book Club: The Heart is a Lonely Hunter
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a discussion of The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter\, the acclaimed debut novel by Carson McCullers. Set in a Georgia mill town during the 1930s\, this modern classic follows a deaf-mute man named John Singer\, who becomes an unexpected confidant to a cast of lonely and searching characters: a drifting laborer\, an idealistic doctor\, a widowed café owner\, and a young girl named Mick Kelly. Each is drawn to Singer in their own quiet desperation\, hoping to find meaning\, connection\, and escape from the limitations of small-town life. With its portrayal of isolation\, racial tensions\, and unspoken longing\, The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter is a deeply moving exploration of the human condition. Copies of the book are available at the front desk\, and new members are welcome!
