Bookclub – gain all the benefits from reading and discussing

First of all, this is not about starting a bookclub. This IS a bookclub. An online bookclub.

Here is how it works.

• I choose a book. I give a link to the book so you can read reviews about it. Then (hopefully) you borrow it from your local library. Then, over a month, you read the book.

• Meanwhile I am busy recording lectures about the book.

• Ideally you will access the course during the month, see the lectures and start discussing the book.

• By the end of the month I will have a) read the book and b) filmed lectures about the book.

• You will have a) read the book and b) started discussing the book by c) watching the lectures as well.

• Thus you have an  online bookclub!

The first book is available for discussion: The Promise by Damon Galgut. It won the 2021 Booker Prize.

You will see from the starter lectures I only talk about the themes. As you read the book – and join in the discussion – so more lectures will be added.

In December a new book will be announced and I will start preparing the lectures.

Then in January, another book etc etc

So, in this online bookclub, you will gain so many things from the reading AND the discussion such as:

• Improved analytical skills

• Improved focus and concentration

• Wider vocabulary

• Improved writing skills

• Knowledge enhancement

• Improved vocabulary

…and many more.

This Course description will be updated as more books are chosen.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have access to the course materials?

You can view and review the lecture materials indefinitely, like an on-demand channel.

Can I take my courses with me wherever I go?

Definitely! If you have an internet connection, courses on Udemy are available on any device at any time. If you don’t have an internet connection, some instructors also let their students download course lectures. That’s up to the instructor though, so make sure you get on their good side!
