The Rural Oklahoma Museum of Poetry is pleased to host our 3rd Let’s Talk About It book club for Fall 2022. From August to December, 2022, we will discuss 5 books on the theme of Crime & Comedy: The Lighter Side of Murder and Misdemeanor.
Literary experts open each book discussion with a fresh analysis of the text, cultivating intrigue and curiosity. By revealing information about the author’s life, giving historical context, and shedding light on recurring themes throughout the book, they impart a deeper understanding of the readings and lay the groundwork for an illuminating exchange of ideas within the group.
