A group of us just studied BELOVED with Christopher, and it was transformative! Now it's your turn... SO worth it. xx
It's called a book club but it's really more of a class, with lectures each week and optional participation in discussions. We'll also look at Ovid's take on Medea, the actual news clipping that inspired Morrison, and more https://t.co/MXWHVOPKpu
