BECOMING THE I (BOOK DISCUSSION)<br />

Join us this term in reading five notable novels <strong>of</strong> identity across class, racial, <strong>and</strong> gender lines.<br />

We begin with the inimitable Colm Tóibín’s The Magician, his epic fictionalized life <strong>of</strong> the author<br />

Thomas Mann. We continue with Kiley Reid’s exploration <strong>of</strong> race <strong>and</strong> “emotional labor” in Such a<br />

Fun Age. Next, we read the luminous Joan Silber’s Improvement, a novel-in-stories about finding<br />

meaning in intersecting lives. Following, we read Rachel Pastan’s In the Field, a novel based on<br />

the life <strong>of</strong> Nobel-prize winning geneticist Barbara McClintock. We end with The Vanishing Half,<br />

Britt Bennett’s lauded novel <strong>of</strong> Black twins taking divergent paths.<br />
