Prosecco N Prose | A Book Club
Prosecco N Prose is a monthly virtual book club. Literature is lit with entertaining English teachers Wendy and Amy as they dive deep while deconstructing prose and downing Prosecco. We talk all things book club and then some. We'd love feedback and always take into consideration requests.

Short Stories of John Updike
Wendy and Amy discuss two short stories by the two-time Pulitzer Prize winner John Updike, "Friends from Philadelphia" and "Gesturing," and pair it with some fancy looking Prosecco Jelly Flutes. They've got some fun facts about the literary critic, sympathize with a teen unknowingly caught in a class war, and attempt to decipher a befuddling gesture. Pop a cork to relatable writings!
