Lets Talk About It Series - The Great Gatsby
March 5th 2013 7:00pm - 9:00pm at Oklahoma City
Come hear Dr. Paul Lehman speak and then participate in small discussion groups on F. Scott Fitzgerald's 'The Great Gatsby'.This classic American novel leads us into our own national dreams and nightmares on what it means to live a successful life. And, do success and happiness mean the same? Nick Carraway must decide if Jay Gatsby is really great, and so must you. Meet or reencounter our national story.
Oklahoma City University invites participants to make these books come alive in the readings of this five-part series. At each session, a Humanities scholar will make a 30-40 minute presentation on the book in the context of the theme. Small group discussion will follow with experienced discussion leaders. At the end, everyone will come together for a brief wrap-up. Anyone interested in participating by attending the sessions is encouraged to pre-register and borrow the reading selections by calling Harbour Winn at 208-5472, emailing him at hwinn@okcu.edu, or dropping by the Dulaney-Browne Library, Room 211 or 207. (Note the offices are located in the five-story building southwest of Walker Center.)
