The Hyborea is named for the Hyborean kingdoms, the pre-eminent powers of the age. Conan would know them all, so can you! Gentle reader we shall not discuss the hidden wonders of Lemuria, or Mu or the Fabled Atlantis itself for that would invite the attention of the horrors that destroyed those once mighty lands down upon our own heads. No, we shall not discuss the Hither Moon of Wanderung, or the Eye of the Further Moon, or the glimpses of Hazardous Future Hyborea for those same reasons; for r …

The first rule of the Cult Fiction Club: you do not talk about the Cult Fiction Club. What is a cult book? 1. A book that is not a bestseller, or has been out of print for some time. 2. A book that inspires a small but vocal following. 3. A book that touches on topics that are in some way unusual, different, outre, even dangerous. 4. A book that inspires change, thought or action. 5. A book that is, above all else, well written. Every month, The Cult Fiction Club selects one book fitting all or …

After this group was begun by another organizer, I took over in the spring of 2012 so that a group of individuals who enjoy reading can share ideas. It's interesting to hear different view points from the group about the people's/character's personalities, the settings, and the topics in general. We have had some great discussions about the author's craft. In the past we have drifted toward biographies; any titles and suggestions from the group are welcome! Debbie Parker

A book club for gay men who have always wanted to read Proust's multi-volume novel but were afraid to try on their own. This group is for you! We will meet bi-weekly on Wednesday evenings for 90-minute discussions and to share our insights into this complex work. We will read Proust in translation (rather than in French). Our goal is to make our way gradually through the novel. Experienced readers of Proust also welcome!

Hi there! I want to start a book club that focuses on non-fiction reads -- mostly what I tend to read are books about health and wellness, travel, animals, biographies, business, and in general, real things. I feel like I am alone out there, because every other book club I see is totally based on reading novels and other works of fiction. Unfortunately, it is rare for me to really enjoy a novel! I would love to see if other people in the area are interested in reading about the "real" stuff and …

It's time to rekindle the group for the new year, and there are a few changes. I welcome your thoughts on them. 0. First, let me address some questions people have asked. This is a writing group, not a critiquing group. You don't need to distribute work ahead of time or do any homework. You can write anything you want; there is no preferred genre or style. You can come as frequently or infrequently as you wish. You can RSVP or not, show or not. We do not charge, we do not judge. 1. …
This is a group for all those who miss the pleasure of digging into a new book with the knowledge that on the other side of the cover they will have the opportunity for engaging conversation! Prepare yourself for some mid-brow chatter, snacks, and reading. We're aiming for one book a month, democratic voting selection, and wide array of subject matters probably heavily leaning towards fiction. Did I mention the snacks?
Comics are brilliant. They are also an overlooked and under-appreciated part of the literary establishment, so we're looking to redress the balance a little. This group will work pretty much like a traditional book club - we pick a new graphic novel or collection every month, read it and meet up for a discussion over coffee or a beer. We're going to try to find the literary corners of the graphic storytelling medium - I'm interested in how art style informs character perception; how panel layout …

In the past, we've met at restaurants, but can meet at someone's home, restaurant, or other venue in the greater Danbury area. We'll meet the 4th Thursday of every month at 7 PM. Meetups are limi …

No club, if it wants to survive, can open itself to all comers. Clubs depend on exclusivity; if the conditions of membership aren’t enforced or argued away by the more insincere members, it dies or becomes something only faintly resembling what it set out to be. Let me begin, then, by telling you exactly what I want this club to be. Once a month, Bostonians who enjoy reading aloud great literature will gather at one of city’s premier watering holes to do just that. (Dive bars won’t provide the q …
