Join author and GPB cofounder Emily Adrian in reading the dazzling fiction of Muriel Spark. This class will meet four times to discuss four of Spark’s most original, ambitious, and tightly constructed novels published between the 1950s and early 2000s: Loitering with Intent; Aiding and Abetting; The Girls of Slender Means; and Memento Mori. We will analyze Spark’s approach to narrative, metafiction, satire, characterization, and dialogue, asking what makes these texts profound, addictive, and hilarious.
