The book club is for lovers of literature and art. On select months, participants discuss a different book in relation to works on view in the museum, gathering in the galleries for an afternoon of literary gossip. The series is presented by Susan Rosoff.
Tuition for the season is $35 for members and $45 for non-members, or $15 for individual sessions. The fall schedule includes three titles.
Elaine Sciolino, a former Paris bureau chief, discusses Adventures in the Louvre: How to Fall in Love with the World's Greatest Museum. She explores artworks both famous and overlooked, along with some of the people who are the museum's lifeblood, in a book described as part travelogue, part history and part memoir. Catherine Coulson, who worked at the Metropolitan Museum of Art for 25 years, presents Metropolitan Stories, a short novel of vignettes about the museum's behind-the-scenes world. Edmund de Waal, a ceramist, offers The Hare with the Amber Eyes: A Hidden Inheritance, about the collection of 264 netsuke he inherited and his wish to learn who had touched and held them, described as part detective story and part memoir.
