Musical samples will be selected from the early, middle and late periods of his development. Wine, cheese and crackers, coffee, tea, and dessert will be served. | 8 | -1 | 000000.0 | 0 | .00035E7 | 35 | 2/15/20 7:00 PM | |

One could be tempted to make the case that the novel is a poorly written and superficial rehash of the groundwork that several authors have visited previously in responsible and interesting fashion, for example, Bart Ehrman. We will choose to ignore that temptation and bring in well-established and responsible commentary to supplement our morning’s discussion. Please be aware that this novel, recently published, was not the work of Samuel Johnson's amanuensis in the 1700s. | 25 | 21 | 000000.0 | 0 | .0002E7 | 20 | 9/29/19 1:30 PM | |
