SUMMARY:Spanish Conversation Group\, Lewes Library
DESCRIPTION:“Join Spanish speakers 18+ to improve your Spanish-speaking skills. \nBasic Spanish conversational ability is required. \nNOTE: this is not a traditional class — there is no Spanish teacher. Instead\, it is a group of people who already speak some Spanish\, or who have studied some Spanish\, or who are now taking some classes elsewhere. Members include retirees\, college students\, and others who have a range of Spanish speaking abilities. Members of the group make suggestions as to what we might do in future classes. There is usually a ‘homework’ assignment preparing each person to talk in Spanish for 2 to 3 minutes to the group. There are icebreakers\, games\, and invited guests who speak on various topics. Each week is different. Nearly all of the discussions are in Spanish. The group is very informal\, friendly and there is no pressure to participate.” \nThursdays | 2:00 PM Eastern Time | Hybrid (Online and In-person)\n \n  \nAll copy and pics from the website: Lewes Library

The most astonishing survival tale of all might be that of 16th-century Dutch explorer William Barents and his crew of sixteen\, who ventured farther north than any Europeans before and\, on their third polar exploration\, lost their ship off the frozen coast of Nova Zembla to unforgiving ice. The men would spend the next year fighting off ravenous polar bears\, gnawing hunger\, and endless winter. In Icebound\, Pitzer masterfully combines a gripping tale of survival with a sweeping history of the great Age of Exploration — a time of hope\, adventure\, and seemingly unlimited geographic frontiers. At the story’s center is William Barents\, one of the 16th century’s greatest navigators whose larger-than-life ambitions and obsessive quest to chart a path through the deepest\, most remote regions of the Arctic ended in both tragedy and glory. \nAndrea Pitzer is a journalist whose writing has appeared in The Washington Post\, The New York Review of Books\, Outside\, The Daily Beast\, Vox\, and Slate\, among other publications. She has authored two previous books\, One Long Night and The Secret History of Vladimir Nabokov—both critically acclaimed. She received an undergraduate degree from Georgetown University’s School of Foreign Service in 1994\, and later studied at MIT and Harvard as an affiliate of the Nieman Foundation for Journalism. She grew up in West Virginia and currently lives with her family near Washington\, DC. \nWe invite you to support the author by purchasing a copy of their book from Browseabout Books by clicking HERE. Call-in orders are accepted at (302) 226-2665 or you can stop by the store to purchase a copy. For store hours\, please visit their website.
