Frieze Lecture: "Gilead"

Lucas Street, director of the Reading/Writing Center at Augustana, will discuss "Gilead" by Marilynne Robinson.

This year’s Frieze Lecture Series theme is “Best. Book. Ever.” Each lecturer has chosen a work from The Greatest Books (an amalgam of 129 “Best Books” lists), and will make the case for their selected work.

This is the last of four lectures in the series, a 24-year partnership between the Rock Island Public Library and Augustana College to present four talks in the fall. Lectures are from 2-3 p.m. Tuesdays at the Rock Island Main Library, 401 19th St., Community Room.  

The lectures will be presented in-person or can viewed as video recordings later. The in-person audience is limited to 25, and registration is required.
