2023 Book Club Schedule
When:
Our book clubs take place Saturdays (usually the third Saturday of the month) via Zoom.
The time of our meetings is 2-3pm EST/ 7-8pm GMT/ 8-9pm CET.
How:
Discussions usually take place mostly, but not exclusively, in Latin; we consider this"immersive" not full "immersion." All levels of Latin are welcome, and participants are even invited to just come and listen, or without having read the book.
​
Sensitive Content
There is no minimum age for attending meetings, but please note that some books contain mature content. Please learn a bit more about the book in advance to scan if it is appropriate or contains content which may be triggering.
​
Author Visits:
We sometimes are honored by a visit from the author!
Authors who have attended Lupercal's book club include:
Mary Beard, Nina MacLaughlin, Helen Morales, and Gwen E. Kirby.
