Classics Book Group
The Classics Book Discussion Group meets the third Monday of the month at noon in the Bicentennial Room on the third floor of the main library. You may bring your lunch. Coffee and tea will be provided. Please call the Contemporary Fiction Desk at 753-4900 extension 206 if you have any questions about the reading group.
Please consider joining this group for a lively and spirited discussion of classic works of fiction.
On March 15, 2010, the group will read Moll Flanders
by Daniel Defoe. Born in Newgate Prison, Moll is left to make her own way in the world. She is determined not to end up a household servant and uses her beauty and her wits to obtain enough money to live as a “gentlewoman.” Unfortunately, her means of rising above her situation call for multiple marriages, including to her own brother, and many acts of theft and other crimes. Defoe’s theme of greed, vanity and repentance are all represented in the life of Moll Flanders.
