Online: Explore Literature with Dr. Mark Schenker: Cloud Cuckoo Land

Mark Schenker will present a series of lectures this fall on novels that engage the themes of curiosity and exploring.

Dr. Schenker, formerly of Yale College and a frequent lecturer at the Ridgefield Library, will begin with Cloud Cuckoo Land (2021), Anthony Doerr’s inventive and wide-ranging tale that spans Western civilization from Ancient Greece through 15th-century Constantinople to the present-day US, and into the 22nd century.

This program is part of the Library's scholarly series, The Curious Mind: Exploration and Discovery, which is made possible by the generosity of the Friends of the Ridgefield Library.
