What better way to immerse yourself into the Italian culture than reading books and short stories by Italian contemporary writers who can make you travel both in space and time?
The book for the Winter session is Il treno dei bambini, Viola Ardone (ISBN: 97888062423299
The aim of this book club is to create an informal yet stimulating space where people who love Italian language and culture, and that are passionate about reading, can come together and discuss each week’s chapters while practicing the language. Not only are we going to go over what we have read so far or exchange ideas about specific topics or excerpts, but we will also discuss and practice new idioms, which will help you expand your vocabulary. We will also analyze book reviews and look at interviews with the authors.
The course is composed of 10 lessons of 1.5 hours each.
Students need to have the Italian edition of "Il treno dei bambini" by Viola Ardone (book, e-book or audiobook) on hand.
