GE Book Club

During the Book Club sessions, students will engage in direct dialogues with the books, the hosts, and one another in a friendly and relaxed environment, the GE Gatherland. Your beliefs and values may be challenged. You may leave with many questions that do not have any final or definite answers. But definitely, you will learn that there is so much more to a book than just the reading of it.
