Music and the Arts Reading

Music and the Arts is happy to announce The Brothers Karamazov, by Fyodor Dostoevsky, as the book of choice for the March 2012 Tony Abbott discussion series. The lectures will be held in the Auditorium and are a wonderful introduction to perhaps the greatest novel and certainly the greatest religious novel ever written even if reading has only begun or is in process! The edition for the study is The Garnett Translation, revised by Ralph E. Matlaw. This version is available in Glad Tidings. Registration is encouraged.  RSVP to Karen Rogers (397-1343).
