The Summer 2008 feminist science fiction reading group meets in Second Life at 11 am PST on Minerva. Here are the books we are reading this summer, as well as the dates we will be discussing them:

Marge Piercy, He She and It, Sunday, July 6
reading questions for Piercy

Suzette Hayden Elgin, Native Tongue, July 20
reading questions for Elgin

Octavia Butler, Dawn, Sunday, August 10
Kay Fowler has published some excellent reading questions for Dawn. Find them here.

Joan Slonczewski, A Door Into Ocean, Sunday, August 24
Look at Slonczewski's own webpage about this novel. We'll bounce our ideas off her study guide.

To get to Minerva, you must have the Second Life program installed on your computer. Open the program, and click on this link. We will be meeting under the large tree that overlooks the beach. Just click on one of the blue balls to find a seat. If there are too many of us, we will split into two groups, and one group will move to the picnic area at the other end of the beach. If you would like to review the reading questions before attending, click on the appropriate link, above.
