Readings for each session, led by teacher and author Ellen Lambert, will be works of short fiction. Participants will study and discuss each story in detail, appreciating more fully what goes into making a great work of literature. "Black-Eyed Women" and "The Other Man" by Viet Thanh Nguyen will be discussed in this session. Lambert has a Ph.D. from Yale in English and has taught high-school English at The Dalton School for over 25 years.
