There were only three books at the meeting on Thursday, December 9th that got more than one vote. They were five votes for
Till We Have Faces and 2 votes each for
Studies In Words and
Pilgrim's Regress so those are scheduled in. The rest I tried to balance with a mix of Inklings, Lewis work and Scholarly Secondary Literature. I hope you like the selection. Don't forget that our book in January is George Macdonald's
Phantastes.
Meetings are held each month on the second Thursday at the Harrisonburg Barnes and Noble starting at 7:30 p.m. The meeting generally runs to 9:00 p.m. Some stalwart souls tend to show up for dinner at Panera's across the way from the Barnes and Noble around 6:30 p.m. You can tell who they are by their loud boisterous Inkling-like behavior (stop throwing things at me).
SEE HERE I was over at the Barnes and Noble today dropping off the reading list for 2011. The manager said that he would order some copies of Phantastes in, especially as there is a 150th anniversary annotated edition. He said it might be a fews days before it comes in, but it might be just the edition to read if you don't have it already.
