Join J.W. Bertolotti and friends to discuss great books in search of wisdom for living well.

This month’s book is  The Abolition of Man by C.S. Lewis.

These sessions have a simple format: we explore great books, discuss the most powerful passages, and enjoy each other’s company while we strive for greater understanding and a meaningful life.

Note that you do not need to have read the books we’re discussing. Just come and enjoy!
