Big Books: James Joyce’s UlyssesThursdays at 7:00 p.m., April 6–June 1 Would you enjoy a guided tour of some of the great, daunting works of literature—books that you may have always wanted to read but whose length and reputationfor being challenging have held you back? The library’s new Big Books series,launching this spring with Ulysses, is intended to be your guide through a rewarding literary experience.

Ulysses is arguably the greatest novel ever written in the English language. On thesurface, the book relates the story of Leopold Bloom as he travels and travailsthrough Dublin and its environs throughout June 16 and into the early morning ofJune 17, 1904. Others in the marvelous cast of characters include the voluptuousMolly Bloom and the melancholy Stephan Dedalus. The reader soon discovers thegenius of Joyce through the book’s fantastic dialogue and its cascading, deliciouslylayered narrative.

The instructor for our course will be Richard Reeder. Richard teaches literaturecourses, including Ulysses, at the Oakton Community College Emeritus program.He is the moderator of the book clubat the historic Cliff Dwellers Club, theauthor of Chicago Sketches, and a regularparticipant in the library’s monthlyWriters’ Open Mic Night.

Registration is required and space is limited. Glencoe residents have priorityif the class fills up.

The Big Books series is sponsored by theFriends of the Glencoe Public Library.

Meet the StaffJAKE ROGERS

Hello! I’m Jake Rogers, and I am one of the newer Adult Serviceslibrarians at the Glencoe Public Library. I select the computer,psychology, business, language, large print and travel books.In addition to providing reference and readers’ advisory, I’m available for one-on-one “Book-a-Librarian” sessions and wouldbe happy to help you get started with your new gadget.

I grew up on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, where I spent my freetime on the beach, in the woods, and of course, at the local library. I graduated fromthe University of Massachusetts Amherst in 2008 with a degree in history. Sometimein the following year, I got the idea in my head that I should move to a big city faraway, so I moved to Chicago. I earned my Masters from University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in 2015, and started working at Glencoe soon after.

I live in Chicago with my wife and our dog. In our free time, we like to do typical cityfolk things — try new restaurants, take the dog to the lake, and insist that our out-of-town friends and family stay with us. My reading tastes these days consist mostly ofhistory, crime noirs, and books about pop culture written by bearded nerds. I canoften be found slinking around the DVD section seeking out movies about alienencounters, post-apocalyptic wastelands, samurai, or heists. If you want to talk aboutany of this or more, you can stop by the reference desk on Thursday or Friday, or onoccasional weekends.
