講座内容
We will discuss how three eminent authors use the unexpected for our reading pleasure - and to challenge our assumptions and reveal hidden truths. The first gives us a bird's eye view of ancient Roman decadence, the second gives a shocking twist to history, and the third offers a playful and heartwarming Christmas mystery.
