We continue with the Reading Club meetings to analyze and discuss different works of North American literature, in a new format and with a new facilitator.
After a prior individualized reading, the works will be discussed in groups on the day of the meeting. We have María Willstedt as moderator who will make a brief introduction, ask questions and encourage the conversation.
For the month of May we will focus on the story “The Golden Rain” by Eudora Welty.
It is available Internet in Spanish but you can also read in any of the editions published in paper.
“Welty works very close to reality and, although she builds her own worlds where the intense and sensory take precedence, she carries out work with colloquial language that makes it much more truthful. In it the use of metaphor is abundant and leads to intensely lyrical moments, but its mastery lies in the fact that its stories seem to enter through eyes, smell, ears, so that the environments strive to envelop everything like a magma.
