Our beloved Book Club has already featured one Great Novel that was kind of a snooze, and one International Bestseller that completely sucked. But who’s to say? What makes a book great, and what makes it “a classic,” and – most importantly – how can we sound smart at parties when literature comes up? The University of Chicago’s Dr. Timothy Campbell is here to sort it all out. Plus, open wide – it’s time for another tasty round of Potluck Info Party!
