East Valley Book Club "November" Potluck and Social!

Well, this post has been a long time coming, but still . . . better late than never, right?
For "November" we have chosen "Wuthering Heights" by Emily Bronte. Yeah, we are on a bit of a classic kick lately, but really, this is one that EVERYONE should read! Here is what Amazon has to say:
Wuthering Heights, by Emily Bronte, is part of the Barnes & Noble Classics series, which offers quality editions at affordable prices to the student and the general reader, including new scholarship, thoughtful design, and pages of carefully crafted extras. Here are some of the remarkable features of Barnes & Noble Classics:
New introductions commissioned from today's top writers and scholars Biographies of the authors Chronologies of contemporary historical, biographical, and cultural events Footnotes and endnotes Selective discussions of imitations, parodies, poems, books, plays, paintings, operas, statuary, and films inspired by the work Comments by other famous authors Study questions to challenge the reader's viewpoints and expectations Bibliographies for further reading Indices & Glossaries, when appropriateAll editions are beautifully designed and are printed to superior specifications; some include illustrations of historical interest. Barnes & Noble Classics pulls together a constellation of influences—biographical, historical, and literary—to enrich each reader's understanding of these enduring works.
Emily Brontë’s only novel, Wuthering Heights remains one of literature’s most disturbing explorations into the dark side of romantic passion. Heathcliff and Cathy believe they’re destined to love each other forever, but when cruelty and snobbery separate them, their untamed emotions literally consume them.

Set amid the wild and stormy Yorkshire moors, Wuthering Heights, an unpolished and devastating epic of childhood playmates who grow into soul mates, is widely regarded as the most original tale of thwarted desire and heartbreak in the English language.

This is also our "social" gathering of the year! It's a potluck dinner, which starts 1 hour earlier, and we invite all spouses, friends, children and anyone else who might like to come to join us! Bring something "festive" and yourself. We get to do all the "off-topic" chatting we want first, before moving into our book discussion. I hope to see everyone there, as this is really my highlight of the year!

See you soon!
