We’ve cooked up an abundance for this fall:
- supersonic flight,
- femmes fatales in film,
- recorded music then and now,
- a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to be a curator,
- and modern detective fiction.
There’s more, of course: more of our Conversations series, more current events, more great books to discuss.
