In 3 meetings of 1 hour and 30 minutes each, the Italian Book Club will explore the novel Paradiso by Michele Masneri (in Italian).
During the meetings with their Book Club tutor, participants will have the opportunity to learn more about the author and background of the chosen book, read aloud a few chosen passages and learn more about grammar, language structures and vocabulary throughout the reading.
