Book Club: Explore American Culture Through Literature – Virtual Session 4
Spanish Reading Club
Meitheamh 2021
At the International Institute we continue with the reading club so that you can continue enjoying American literature from home.
Our virtual meeting in June will be dedicated to the analysis of “By degrees and dilatory time” (“By Degrees and Dilatory Time”) of SL Huang, who studied mathematics at MIT before turning to writing and working in Hollywood. In this story she takes us to another world where we question our relationship with new technological advances.
You can get the story through the internet both en Spanish as in English. If necessary, the organizers can help the participants to locate the work.
After an individualized reading, the works will be discussed in groups using the zoom tool. We have Lauren Giera as the moderator who will give a brief introduction, throw questions and encourage the conversation. We will also offer a reading guide to deepen the understanding of the texts and encourage participation during the session.
Participants must keep their cameras on during the discussion.
Those registered for this activity will receive an email before the session to confirm participation in the virtual session.
