Weaving Time in a Tapestry • January 2021
Here's to a great 2021; help select what we'll read and discuss next!
The topic is Weaving Time in a Tapestry.
This could be a book that is set in multiple time periods, or a book that jumps back and forth in time to tell a story in a non-linear way, or a book about time travel, or a book that has to do with weaving or sewing, or tapestries or blankets, or a book with a time element in its title such as seconds, minutes, days, years, millennia, etc., or a book otherwise about time in some fashion.
Detailed nominating and voting guidelines can be found here. Basically, nominations are open for about four days and each person may nominate up to three literary selections which will go automatically to the vote. Voting by post then opens for four days, and a voter may give each nomination either one or two votes but only has a limited number of votes to use which is equal to the number of nominations minus one. Any questions, feel free to ask.
We hope that you will read the selection with us and join in the discussion.
