NOMINATIONS ARE OPEN
We're back in business next week, as we gather at UR next Saturday, September 15, room 500 in Ryland Hall at 5 p.m., to discuss Our Man in the Dark, by Rashad Harrison. I'm looking forward to it.
Our next meeting after that, on Saturday, November 19, will feature WIDE OPEN NON-FICTION, which means exactly that: no fiction, no poetry, no plays. Everything else is in the mix as a possibility.
Please nominate no more than two (2) books. Nominations will stay open until Wednesday at 10 p.m., then we'll vote on the nominations for the next book selection until Friday at 10 p.m., when the poll will close. If there's a tie---and only if there's a tie; even a one-vote margin is a legitimate victory---we'll break the tie by secret-ballot vote at the meeting.
