About this Event

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the constant barrage of content, the glut of influencers and advertisers vying for your eyeballs, and the sheer velocity and volume of daily information, then perhaps it’s time to take a DEEP DIVE and reclaim your attention. Bookends University Deep Dive is for anyone looking to spend less time on their devices and more time thinking and discussing literature in a supportive space with others.

Every month we’ll take a Deep Dive into a short story, essay, or poem. No preparation necessary. We will read the text aloud together, spend some time thinking about it silently, then use our observations to really dig in to what the piece is all about. At the end of our time together, we may even do a little optional writing inspired by the work. Deep Dive is an invitation to practice sustained study in a culture often allured by convenience and speed. Let’s dive in!
