π New Book Club Read: Island by Aldous Huxley π
Sunday, November 5th 2023 β’ 12-2pm β’ Members Only
To join the IN PERSON meeting on November 5th, become a member.
Earlier this year we read Huxleyβs Brave New World. Having grown up at Esalen, I always knew that Island was based on some form of the community that was being fostered in Big Sur in the early 60βs. Now having read Brave New World, it seems as if perhaps Brave New World captured something of the fear of the future - like a cautionary tale - and maybe Island is the salve? Iβm just not sure yet, but Iβd love to discuss with you.
You can buy or listen to Island here.
If you are a member and intend to come, please reserve your spot by Venmo-ing @secularsabbath $10. Our in-person meeting is limited to 15 people so that everyone has a chance to speak and listen. The address will be sent upon RSVP so email us a screenshot of your venmo once youβve sent it, please.
