This group meets once a month on a Monday afternoon.
We discuss classic novels and occasionally a poem or play, looking at the context
of the work, literary style and conventions.
We think about what the writer was trying to achieve and what techniques he used.
We look at characters, plot and themes in an analytical way.
This approach appeals to people who are interested in an overview of English Literature and who like to extend their appreciation of literature beyond simple discussion.
It is quite demanding.
