*Z6 Essays for Our Time
Literature & Writing | Registration opens 9/2/2026 12:00 AM
What if we were to read essays as navigating tools pointing us to who we are, what we don’t know, how to live in our time? We’ll employ James Baldwin, George Orwell, Virginia Woolf, and others to be compasses of sorts. Let’s try! In this small class of deep reading, discovery, conversation, questions, and reflection, one essay each week (provided through the internet) will need to be read at least once.
