Proust, Faulkner, Joyce: the names may be weighty, but once in the work, the beauty of the language and the provocation of ideas and deeper contemplation buoys us up. I hope you can join us for these dynamic studies.

Any given moment–no matter how casual, how ordinary–is poised, full of gaping life…

–Anne Michaels, Fugitive Pieces
Last week in the mad dash before leaving London, I had added events & published the Salon newsletter only to have the website crash inexplicably the morning I flew. With limited access, limited time and much more limited skills, I turned to the technical support friends who have helped me with this difficult work– and so I am re-sending this newsletter with the events back in place… thanks to all for your patience and apologies for the frustrations — please let me know if you have any questions or if anything is unclear…
See you in the pages..

  1. I am so excited! Not only are you offering a daytime Proust (count me in) but you have quoted my favourite book, which means you have already embraced the beauty of her language. Definitely sign me up for the Tuesday afternoon sessions, and hope to see you before, somehow. x

  2. So pleased you are doing Proust. What a treat !have paid my subscription by Visa. Look forward to Wed evenings in Sept.

  3. Wonderful, Robin!! Fugitive Pieces is gorgeous…one of the first books I have ever read when I find during the first reading I am no longer looking for what happened– just swimming through the language…I have held your place for afternoons of Proust– opening notes to follow!

  4. Wonderful, Alexandra– really looking forward to this next adventure together– looks to be a great group– opening notes to follow early August. Very much looking forward to seeing you!
