A Reading group that combines the joy of reading with adaptations of books in various media; film, theatre, radio plays etc. Our reading material: the classics, science fiction, crime, literature, non-fiction - in short from Asimov to Zola and everything between.
We meet every 2 weeks (flexible depending on groups availability), discussing the current read while reading it. We talk about the book and bring to the discussion supplementary material relevant to the author and/or story or period. Our aim is to lift the words off the page to enjoy and experience the author’s creation in a multitude of ways.
Here are an interesting series of video & audio clips of Frank Herbert. The first is a brief TV interview of Herbert (date unknown) talking about Dune. A 6 part audio interview with Frank Herbert & David Lynch about the book & Lynch's film - love it or hate the film the interviews are dry but insightful. Parts 1-3 are posted today & the final 3 tomorrow (to avoide the post becoming to large).
