Description
First of all, this is not about starting a bookclub. This IS a bookclub. An online bookclub.
Here is how it works.
I choose a book. I give a link to the book so you can read reviews about it. Then (hopefully) you borrow it from your local library. Then, over a month, you read the book.
Meanwhile I am busy recording lectures about the book.
Ideally you will access the course during the month, see the lectures and start discussing the book.
By the end of the month I will have a) read the book and b) filmed lectures about the book.
You will have a) read the book and b) started discussing the book by c) watching the lectures as well.
Thus you have an online bookclub!
The first book is available for discussion: The Promise by Damon Galgut. It won the 2021 Booker Prize.
You will see from the starter lectures I only talk about the themes. As you read the book - and join in the discussion - so more lectures will be added.
In December a new book will be announced and I will start preparing the lectures.
Then in January, another book etc etc
So, in this online bookclub, you will gain so many things from the reading AND the discussion such as:
Improved analytical skills
Improved focus and concentration
Wider vocabulary
Improved writing skills
Knowledge enhancement
Improved vocabulary
...and many more.
This Course description will be updated as more books are chosen.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long is a coupon valid?
Coupons are issued by instructors to promote their courses, gain traction and reach momentum. The instructor can choose to emit discounted (ex: $11.99 coupon) or 100% off coupon (you pay nothing). Each coupon becomes expired when emitted quota is over (1000 enrollments) OR expiration date has been reach (5 days).
-
What is this "1000 enrollments" from Udemy?
For a coupon, number of activation are now capped to 1000 max. This means that it can be activated only a 1000 times, and then it expires; or reach its expiration date; whatever happens first.
-
Could you please help me to find a coupon for this course?
We have no contact with instructors, and only instructors can emit coupons. You can try to directly contact the instructor finding his/her Twitter/Facebook, and ask him/her for a coupon, but at our level, we cannot help, sorry.
