Alumni Book Club: Stories of Your Life and Others

Center for Literary and Comparative Studies | English Thursday, May 16, 2024 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm Tawes Hall, 2115

The May Alumni Book Club session will discuss Ted Chiang's Stories of Your Life and Others in person at 2115 Tawes Hall at 6:30 p.m. A light supper will be served.

Description:

Stories of Your Life and Others delivers dual delights of the very, very strange and the heartbreakingly familiar, often presenting characters who must confront sudden change—the inevitable rise of automatons or the appearance of aliens—with some sense of normalcy. With sharp intelligence and humor, Chiang examines what it means to be alive in a world marked by uncertainty, but also by beauty and wonder. An award-winning collection from one of today's most lauded writers, Stories of Your Life and Others is a contemporary classic.

The Alumni Book Club meets on the third Thursdays of the month at 6:30 p.m.

To be added to the listserv list for monthly meeting reminders, contact Karen Nelson.
