Low Maintenance Book Club

Who We Are

The Low Maintenance Book Club provides space for members of the Duke community to connect over reading.  Realizing how busy people are (and how much reading you probably have to do for classwork and research), we focus on quick reads.  We will read texts like short stories, graphic novels, interesting short essays, poetry, etc.  We hope you will join us for some fun and thought provoking conversations!

ONLINE: Low Maintenance Book Club reads "Galatea"

 

Happy New Year! Join the Low Maintenance Book Club for our first meeting of the semester as we discuss Madeline Miller’s short story “Galatea,” a reimagining of the myth of Galatea and Pygmalion. As usual, we’ll meet at noon over Zoom. Copies of the short story are available from Duke University Libraries or your local public library.

As always, you’re welcome to join us regardless of how much (or whether) you’ve read! Just make sure to RSVP to receive a Zoom link the morning of the meeting. Hope to see you there!
