January 26th, the last Wednesday in January, 2011, will be our next session date.

We will begin reading a new book, Wind, Sand and Stars (click the link to buy or to see the details of the book on Amazon Japan) by the French pilot and poet, Antoine de St Exupery. The Japanese translation is 人間の土地 (新潮文庫). (Click the link to buy or to see the details of the book on Amazon Japan.)

One of our members wrote a review of Wind, Sand and Stars in English. You can read it here: http://stardustenglishwriting.blogspot.com/2010/09/terre-des-hommes-by-saint-exupery.html

This is a good chance to drop out or drop back in. I expect we will spend at least 3 sessions discussing this book.

The next book after that will be The Natural by American author Bernard Malamud (Japanese Wikipedia entry here). After that has not been decided, so feel free to tell me your requests or suggestions.

Best wishes for the holiday season.
