Literature Club


Welcome to first meeting of Literature Club on Sunday, October 2 at 1:00 p.m.

You may exchange your impressions about your favourite books, discover new authors and improve your language skills. During our meetings much attention will be paid to any of your creative activity. We are glad to listen to your reading a poem of your favourite writer by heart or representing the one of your own. But there is of course an educational part of our clubs. You may practice English Grammar and enlarge your personal vocabulary by studying and discussing the books of a famous modern writer Neil Gaiman.  We’ll discuss a dark fantasy children’s novella “Coraline” by Neil Gaiman, published in 2002. It was awarded the 2003 Hugo Award for Best Novella, the 2003 Nebula Award for Best Novella, and the 2002 Bram Stoker Award for Best Work for Young Readers. It has been compared to Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and was adapted into a 2009 stop-motion film directed by Henry Selick.

“Coraline discovered the door a little while after they moved into the house. . . .”

When Coraline steps through a door to find another house strangely similar to her own (only better), things seem marvelous.

But there’s another mother there, and another father, and they want her to stay and be their little girl. They want to change her and never let her go.

Coraline will have to fight with all her wit and courage if she is to save herself and return to her ordinary life.

The Club will be held by Evgenia Krutova, ELT.
