I would like to share this with the list vis book clubs. My mother was
invited to join one in Shreveport, Louisiana. She is not a club joiner at
all (a true Nabokovian!), but decided to go along to hear the discussion
they were slated to have. She was apalled to find out that the club has a
"professional reader" who reads the books and then tells the club members
about them, thereby saving them the ordeal of actually having to read
anything!!!
