What we’re about
Remember all those great books that were forced down our throats in High School? Do you remember them with fond memories? No, of course not. We were all too young with other priorities to fully appreciate them. This is a book group that aims to remedy that by revisiting all the great classics. Books like The Great Gatsby, Moby Dick, Crime and Punishment, Wuthering Heights, and many many more. This is not high school, there will be no tests or forced questions, just book lovers and casual discussion. -Brad (group founder)

See all- The Sun Also Rises by Ernest HemingwayLink visible for attendees
The Sun Also Rises is the first novel by the American writer Ernest Hemingway. It portrays American and British expatriates who travel from Paris to the Festival of San Fermín in Pamplona and watch the running of the bulls and the bullfights. An early modernist novel, it received mixed reviews upon publication. Hemingway biographer Jeffrey Meyers writes that it is now "recognized as Hemingway's greatest work," and Hemingway scholar Linda Wagner-Martin calls it his most important novel.
The novel was published in the United States in October 1926, by Scribner's. A year later, Jonathan Cape published the novel in London under the title Fiesta. (Wikipedia)
