The Feminist Book Club - Ann Arbor has been meeting for a little more than a year at member's homes, and on occasion, at local pubs. This is multi-generational group of thinkers and readers who have come together because we enjoy discussing feminism as it relates to our book selections.
If you are like-minded on the subject of feminism, you might like to read these books and blog with us on them.
Our group began in June of 2006...here is our reading list.
Snow Flower and the Secret Fan-Lisa See (june)
Song of Solomon-Toni Morrison (july)
Reading Lolita in Tehran-Azar Nafisi (august)
feminism is for everybody-bell hooks (august)
Through the Gate to Women's Country-Sheri Tepper (september)
Sense and Sensibility-Jane Austen (november)
Stone Butch Blues-Leslie Feinberg (december)
On Beauty-Zadie Smith (january)
The Bell Jar-Sylvia Plath (february)
The Left Hand of Darkness-Ursula K. Leguin (march)
The Many Lives and Secret Sorrows of Josephine B.-Sandra Gulland (april)In The Time of Butterflies-Julia Alvarez (may)
Mama Day-Gloria Naylor (june/july)
The Heart is A Lonely Hunter-Carson McCullers (august)
Interpreter of Maladies-- Jhumpa Lahiri (september)
The Waves -- Virginia Woolf (october)
So, why this blog? Well, I have a germ of an idea to promulgate in some as yet-to-be-determined form, the great discussion we have every month on these books as they relate to views on feminism. The response we get to the blog may be an indicator of interest. Call it a little market research.
