SUMMARY:Brattleboro Great Books Group
DESCRIPTION:The Brattleboro Great Books Group will be discussing Fyodor Doyevsky’s novel “The Devils” (a.k.a. “the Daemons” and “The Possessed”) on Monday\, March 2nd\, from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. in the Mezzanine Quiet Room of the Brooks Memorial Library.\n\n\n“The Devils” (approx. 668 pp.\, any edition) is an emotionally harrowing\, structurally messy story of a group of mostly upper-class provincial intellectuals in 1860’s and 1870’s Russia. Its  characters are striking\, multi-faceted and memorable. Although I am reading the Penguin Classic Edition translated by David Marshack\, due to failing eyesight\, I am relying on a YouTube\, 3-part narrated edition (the one with a sinister illustration of three ominous characters). Each one\, narrated by an excellent actor\, is approximately 10+ hours\, or requiring a 30+ hour commitment\, but well worth your time. \n\n\nApril 6th discussion will be Volume I\, “Swann’s Way\,” of Marcel Proust’s 7-volume opus “Remembrance of Times Past” (A la recherche du gems perdu”) \n\n\nFor further information\,  email Michael N. LANDIS\, at emagicmtman@gmail.com\, or call him at (802) 257-1851). \nIn case of inclement weather\, the discussion will be again deferred.
