Event Description
A stimulating community program in which Cal Lutheran faculty review noteworthy books. Each faculty member will offer an engaging review, which will include time for audience discussion and questions. Light refreshments will be provided.
Critics have singled out Amy Hempel’s literary art as especially adept at characterization. Hempel is able to “make her characters’ feelings completely integral to the scenes they inhabit; her terse descriptions become elegantly telegraphic … with not one word wasted and not a single fact embellished.” (Publishers Weekly) Reviewed by Dr. James Bland, Assistant Professor of English.
