Book Group Workshop Has your book group lost its energy? Is your group interested in engaging in more spirited and meaningful discussions? If so, please join us for an interactive workshop with Caroll Stenson, a professional short story discussion leader. Explore together why some book groups fail and others thrive. Using a short story as a starting point, Carroll will demonstrate how to improve your group so every member comes away feeling enriched and that is was time well-spent.
Be sure to stop by the Reference Desk at Fairfield Woods Branch Library to pick up a copy of the short story that Carroll will be discussing in the workshop. The story is "The Story of an Hour" by Kate Chopin.
