Fiction’s Helping Hands: Compassion and Serendipity

In a previous class, we energetically discussed the mandate to help others, inside or outside a family. In Ann Patchett’s “The Dutch House,” we see and applaud compassionate change agents who respond to the ruptures within a family. The first three sessions will target the novel; the last session will include poetry or a short story. The class meets four Tuesdays, starting September 10 from 10-11:15am.
