This group is for folks in the East Bay/Oakland area who want to read the works of this American novelist, essayist, playwright, poet, and social critic James Baldwin, then gather together and discuss what we read.

I am new to San Francisco from the east coast and looking to meet some new girlfriends. I started and was a member of a book club in New Jersey and loved it. This group is for ladies only (sorry boys) in their 20s/early 30s who are looking to meet some new friends and share their love of reading. After all, there is nothing like a good book to start a conversation! And of course, a few cocktails will be involved. Looking for some fun, chilled out ladies who want to make great friends and have go …

I need motivation at times to complete my reading list and maybe you do too? I'm a fan of classic literature (think Aeschylus, Dostoyevsky, Mann, Balzac, Cervant …

Join us for a fascinating evening with author David R. Gillham, author of City of Women, a multi-layered novel that tackles life in World War II Berlin as Sigrid finds herself caught between what is right and what is wrong. Read more about the novel: Whom do you trust, whom do you love, and who can be saved? It is 1943--the height of the Second World War--and Berlin has essentially become a city of women. Sigrid Schroder is, for all intents and purposes, the model German soldier's wife: She …

The goal of Oakland Authors is to create a virtual and physical place for East Bay writers to gather, exchange ideas, and help each other in any way needed. The publishing industry as a whole is struggling. It’s up to us to decide if it dies or reinvents itself. The modern author doesn’t have the luxury of being able to retreat to write, letting others do the work of editing, producing and distributing books, coding e-books, or marketing him or herself. We at Oakland Authors hope that by banding …
A group dedicatd to reading James Joyce's Finnegans Wake. Sounds pretty straight forward right..... The plan, to read a few pages alone, come together, read them aloud and decipher together. If it sounds like fun, then join. If it sounds like hard work, but rewarding, then join. If you want to laugh at the rest of us, then join.....

[FYI: this group is not run by Dr. Michael Brown. In fact, he has nothing to do with it nor indorses it or even knows of its existence as of this writing] In his book, "A Queer Thing Happened to America" (offered on Amazon), Dr. Michael Brown takes a factual look at the history and impact of the Homosexual Agenda. Could it be that like Feminism today, what might have started out as a good thing, a right not to be abused and to be treated humanly, has gone too far? Is it out of control? Can …
December 22, 2012 Today was the day to bring lesbians together of all ages who would like to go to dinners, movies, walks, breakfast, start a book group, picnics, good Theater, or classical music and even the opera. As I was perusing the various groups I clearly noticed, that lesbians of all ages were left out of the picture. Hey, I know I'm still active and I bet all of you are too. No point counting the years when the fun will go away, let's enjoy these years to the fullest and get back into l …
