Ostara* [Witchvox Sponsor] presents...
Ostara* Book Club
When: Nov. 14th. 2009
Where: Bethlehem, Pennsylvania
discussing Neil Gaiman's "American Gods"
Event Details: Ostara* is pleased to announce it's new Book Discussion Group! Each month or so a date will be set to have a sit down discussion on a book chosen the month prior. Bring your opinions and critique, and a few dollars if you would like some pizza and a drink. You are not required to participate each month (but we'd like it if you did!) and there is no required fee other than to provide a copy of the book for yourself.
The first discussion scheduled will be for the book American Gods by Neil Gaiman. American Gods is a brilliant piece of modern mythological fiction. "One of the most talked about books of the new millennium, American Gods is a kaleidoscopic journey deep into myth and across an America landscape at once eerily familiar and utterly alien. It is, quite simply, a contemporary masterpiece." (Harper Perennial book cover) .
This book presents us with a very interesting reading assignment. There are, throughout the entire novel, many gods and goddesses from many cultures hidden throughout the story. How many do you think you can identify? The internet has many lists from people who have found the gods and goddesses. If you've never read this book, you are on your honor not to cheat and look them up. It is highly recommended you purchase your own copy so you may take notes or dog-ear pages if you want. Among other discussions, we'll share our finds with the group.
Please let us know if you are interested in participating- 610-866-5577. We'd like to know approximately how many people will be reading the book. American Gods in paperback form can be found at Barnes and Noble and Borders in Whitehall. It's also easily found at used bookstores and on Amazon.com.
