WHY
HAVE LAURA LEAD YOUR BOOK GROUP?
With a B.A. and M.A. in English, an English teaching credential, 25
years' teaching English at the college level, a passion for literature, and a gift
as a teacher, Laura is a natural for leading a Book Group.
WHAT
WILL LAURA DO FOR YOUR BOOK GROUP?
• Give you a written guide on any book you choose
• Help you choose books that fit your group
• Focus your group, in an easy-going and non-pedantic
manner
• Keep your discussion flowing, with humor and energy
• Guide your group toward stimulating, rewarding and
fun discussions
• Meet your group almost anywhere in the Bay Area —
from Marin to Morgan Hill,
Lafayette to Los Gatos.
• Out of love for this work, keep rates as reasonable
as possible.
SPECIAL
LITERARY AREAS
Nobel Laureates
So much to read, so little time. Why not read the best in the world?
Whether Polish, Irish, Columbian, Israeli, French, American, or South
African, Nobel Laureates are accessible to your book group. With Laura's
guidance, reading a book by a Nobel Laureate becomes a rewarding,
challenging, stimulating and memorable experience. (Take a look at
my Nobel Laureate course for UCSC extension and for OSHER Lifelong
Learning Institute, under Curriculum Development.)
Jewish-American authors
With Laura's expert guidance, enjoy the heyday of Jewish immigrant
literature, the Jewish-American Golden Age of Philip Roth, Bernard
Malamud, and Saul Bellow; and today's Jewish literature, uniquely
funny, irreverent, familiar and often very wise.
