Virtual Classics Book Club: “Washington Square”

New virtual “classics” book club – don’t worry – it isn’t high school English class!

Join us for the latest Virtual Classics Book Club on June 25. Feel free to login via your computer or call on your phone!

Join us in this session to discuss Washington Square by Henry James.  Have you read it in the past? Have you seen a film adaptation of the book? Or do you just want to learn more about this classic novel and author?  Many people may already have these books on their shelves at home but there are loads of ways to download classic eBooks and eAudiobooks for free. Washington Square is available widely for free online, one source is Project Gutenberg.

Other free resources are RB Digital (requires patron login) and LibriVox, which has an audio version of the novel.
