Lewiston Auburn Senior College

IN-PERSON at SCHOONER ESTATES

Sometimes culture or environment is so central to a story that it almost becomes one of the characters. In this course we will discuss four modern novels: Lady Tan’s Circle of Women by Lisa See, The Heaven and Earth Grocery Store by James McBride, Familia by Lauren E. Rico, and Prophet Song by Paul Lynch. Classes will meet every two weeks, so we have time to read the novels.

All books are available at any public library.
