We'll meet in person to discuss Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows by Balli Kaur Jaswal over several weeks. You'll read about 40 pages each week on your own, and then we'll answer questions and discuss plot developments when we meet on Wednesdays. Our last day will be June 5th. Copies of the book are available at the FCL Farmington Information Desk.
Description: Nikki has spent most of her life distancing herself from the traditional Sikh community. After her father's death she takes a job teaching a creative writing course in the heart of the Punjabi community. When one of the women students brings a book of erotica to class, Nicki uses it as the basis for helping these modest women unleash creativity by telling their own stories.
