Dear Reading Group:
First, thank you to Janet and Leonard for posting your thoughtful joint questions on Friday. And thanks as well to Rhonda, Chuck, Tom, and everyone who contributed questions and responses over the past few weeks. Your efforts and insights led to many great discussions!
This Friday marks the conclusion of this year's summer reading group, though of course, you’re welcome to keep the conversation going beyond that. Janet's and Leonard’s questions still offer plenty of material to explore.
In addition, everyone is invited to share closing thoughts on the novel as well. For instance, did the ending feel complete? Would you read the book again, now that you’ve finished it? How did it compare as a novel to The Moviegoer, last summer's book? Any and all reflections you share will add further breadth, no doubt, to our understanding and appreciation of the novel and Percy as a writer.
Finally, I’m re-attaching the quiz I sent out before we began reading — have fun!
Cheers,
Henry
