All literature lovers
- To share the joys of reading short fiction.
- To discuss and exchange ideas on a selection of short stories by Julian Barnes.
- To build strategies that will enable the participants to take an active role in the creation of the meaning of the texts.
Literary texts provide unique ways of representing and exploring the workings of the human mind and the alternative inner world of the other: they are bridges into the self and into otherness. Julian Barnes’s collections The Lemon Table and Pulse offer witty and thought-provoking inshights into the lives of men and women who experience lost love, failed art, old age and human folly.
- Presentation of an integrated approach to the texts.
- Guided group reflection and exchange of ideas on the texts.
- Reading of key sections of the short stories to appreciate their narrative power.
A selection of short stories from the collections The Lemon Table (2004) and Pulse (2011), by Julian Barnes.
