Arc of Justice Book Club

We had a small group for our book club discussion this term, but we had some fabulous discussion. We were lucky enough to have the author, Kevin Boyle, join us to talk about his experiences writing the book. I think this was great, because instead of just speculating what the author was trying to convey, we could hear firsthand how his research and trips inspired him.
The book itself was very enjoyable. It took me a few chapters to realize it was non-fiction, so the level of detail and description was high. Prof. Boyle told us his idea was that people would read this book before bed, and he hoped the plot and characters motivated them to stay up and keep reading.
Not only did I like the book, I also loved the ability to talk to the author about the writing process. For example, he says he hates the title, but would never want to change it. Another marvelous event from the Humanities Scholars, and of course lots of free pizza.
