11.1 miles away in San Francisco, CA12 MembersMeetup details are available only to members.
(WE HAVE A WAITING LIST. See below for details). SFDiscourse is a book club that's been meeting monthly since 2001. Our aim is to keep our wits sharp by reading challenging non-fiction books and having an unstructured discussion about them. We read contemporary books on topics such as history, science, politics, and social issues. We're not very serious but the books usually are. We also recognize that since we often read books about controversial subjects, people may really disagree with e …

So what's the worst part of most book groups? Being forced to read a book you simply don't want to read. And what's the best part: getting all those great book recommendations! In this meet up, we're going to dispense with the book *reading* and go straight to the recommending ... and we'll do it with a game I call the "Book Auction". Each participant brings 2 of their favorite books (1 fiction, 1 non-fiction) -- these can be books off your shelf, or new purchases from a store. At the door, ever …

Have you ever heard of Naked Girls Reading? It’s a group of ladies who enjoy giving readings of various works to a large audience au naturel. The group originated in Chicago two years ago when the founder’s husband caught his naked wife lying in repose focused intently on her book. At that moment, both agreed that there was something amazingly powerful about reading sans culottes. As a PhD literature grad student and a nudist, I have been doing this for years! And now, I think it’s the perfect t …
