Smiley Posted July 14, 2019 Report Posted July 14, 2019 Please join us for our next chat in #readers_corner at 8:30 P.M. (EDST) July 20th, 2019 -- 00:30 A.M. (GMT) July 21st -- for a discussion of "The Woman Who Hated Children" by James Ronald. This story was published in the Saturday Evening Post in 1951. It tells a moving story of a middle-aged woman grief stricken by the death of her young son and of her loving husband's concern over her chronic depression which is plaguing their marriage. I believe you will find the story interesting. It may also prove interesting to discuss a few of the differences in the world of 1951 as opposed to today's. The story mentions the polio epidemics of the mid- 20th century, a danger almost eliminated by the development of effective preventative inoculations. (That too may provide food for thought and chat.) The story is available on line at: https://tinyurl.com/y4ao8zn2 Meeting Place: #Readers_Corner Webchat: http://koach.com/chatlogin.php?chan=readers_corner mIRC Users: /server -m chat3.koach.com:6667 -j #readers_corner I hope to see you all at our chat.
