Ethical Page Turners–Lives of Others

Facilitator: Betsy Lightbourn, PES member

Ethical issues are often creatively explored through fiction. Literary fiction especially can illuminate ethical issues and enhance an understanding of the lives of others. This summer, our reviewers will briefly review books which have led them to a better understanding of those who are not like them, e.g. race, gender, ethnicity, class, values. How can an enriched understanding of the lives of others help us honor the worth of every individual?
