Smiley Posted January 10, 2017 Report Posted January 10, 2017 Please join us for our next chat in #readers_corner at 8:30 P.M. (EST) on January 14th, 2017 (01:30 A.M., January 15th (GMT)), for a discussion of The Great Zero by Jonathan Walter. The story is from the 2011 "Fiction" issue of The New Yorker magazine. This week's selection deals with the socio-political impact of the great depression and concurrent "dust bowl" drought of the early 1930's. It is not a pretty story, but I found it interesting. The story has the same feel to it as do Steinbeck's depression era novels, and I hope you will agree with me that this story is well worth reading. It should provide ample grist for our chat mill. The story is available for at: https://www.theatlantic.com/feed/author/jonathan-walter/ Meeting Place: Webchat: http://www.koach.com...#Readers_Corner mIRC Users: /server -m chat3.koach.com:6667 -j #readers_corner I hope to see you all there, and don't forget...bring a friend.
