Description

The women finish their chat and share their final book reports inspired by “Talking to Strangers: What We Should Know about the People We Don't Know” by Malcolm Gladwell. Kim brings to the group a few concerns she has with the book, then they finish with whether they recommend it. 

Discussion Points:

• Suicide - is the information in the book is out of date?
• Coupling - do events only happen because of specific circumstances/context?
• Sylvia Plath 
• Are poets more likely to commit suicide?
• Crime statistics and race - did Gladwell miss something?
• Do you recommend the book?
• Final book reports
