One may enjoy the lectures without having read the books, but will undoubtedly be inspired after attending these lectures, which are followed by an informal discussion. Everyone from teenagers to octogenarians and beyond have attended these talks by the University of Michigan professors, who each bring a wealth of fascinating literary and historical information.

To join the Friends of the Grosse Pointe Public Library and attend any or all of the lectures at no charge, please complete a membership form.
