(I didn&#8217;t join the group until 1980.) Thirty years for such a weekly reading group is a phenomenal record, I think. The actual number of books comes to just over 200, about 6-7 books per year. But it&#8217;s the quality and variety, not the quantity, that is impressive. We read only books that you wouldn&#8217;t read by yourself and sometimes can spend 2-3 months on one book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"791\"
