Innocence

The choice of INNOCENCE as the theme of the next Kimberley reads & Talks .
Just what is innocence? Is it the opposite of GUILT? Is it lack of life experience? Is it naivete? All of these? Or something else entirely? Uncorrupted? Pure?

Think of the many diffrent contexts where we use this word - from 'the innocence of a child', 'one is innocent until proven guilty' , 'innocence defiled', 'innocent bystander', to 'she gazed with innocent eyes...'

In view of all these possibilities, choice of books on this theme can take us in many directions, and lead to an interesting discussion.

You can be part of it by coming to the Friends Used Bookstore in Marysville at 7 pm Wednesday March 12, prepared to dicuss the theme in the context of a book or short story of your chosing-fiction or non-fiction. Call 250-427-5354 or email kimberleybooks@gmail.com for more info.
