Cynthia Clark Book Club
Reading books is not just a past-time – it does to your brain what exercise does for your body. As the brilliant Tyrion Lannister puts it in A Game of Thrones, “A mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone.” Even Mark Zuckerberg has made it his resolution for 2015 to read more books – leading to the start of his own book club on – where else? – Facebook.
Zuckerberg isn’t the first notable personality to start a book club either. Some of the books Oprah has chosen for her own book club have made wonders for their authors too!
While most of those book clubs feature works published by living authors, there are works in the public domain that we often forget about. And it’s not just the Tolstoy’s, the Dostoyevsky’s and the Eliot’s, but it’s also those thought-provoking works that we forget are very much available for no cost at all!
It’s reading these works that show just how powerful thought is that drives Cynthia Clark. And true to her passion for uncovering works in the public domain, she has established her own book club that will take on various works available in the public domain that stimulates the mind and helps us lead better lives.
