June Book Club: Dracula


Book Club is meeting on the Flint River campus this Thursday to discuss one of literature's less sparkly, but more deadly vampires - Dracula!  We'll go over Jonathan Harker's trip to Transylvania and then home again to London - with some unexpectedly bloodsucking cargo in tow.  Join us for coffee and conversation at 4.00 on Thursday, June 28th!
