About this Event

The "book-ish" club is among a new set of Bookends & Beginnings “clubhouse” gatherings for members and member-curious folks to meet up and spend in-person, community time in the store.

There are at least sixty English translations of Homer's and we've got more than a handful of them on our shelves! Join us for a book conversation about translations and the difference(s) they make. Our will be open, and we’ll be open to your opinion.

Registration is free for paid store members and $5 for non-members and Followers. We'll also have drink specials at the minibar! (No outside beverages please). Visit our website, or link here to become a member:
