Join the #McConnellCenter as we welcome Dr. Amy Sturgis to convince us to read Mary Shelley - but probably not the book of which you are thinking!

Amy H. Sturgis earned her Ph.D. in Intellectual History from Vanderbilt University and specializes in Science Fiction/Fantasy/Gothic and Indigenous American Studies. She contributes the “Looking Back on Genre History” segment to the Hugo Award-winning StarShipSofa podcast. Dr. Sturgis is also the author of four books and over sixty essays

We all know we need to read more and there are literally millions of books on shelves with new ones printed every day. How do we sort through all the possibilities to find the book that is just right for us now?

Well, the McConnell Center is bringing authors and experts to inspire us to read impactful and entertaining books that might be on our shelves or in our e-readers, but which we haven’t yet picked up.

We hope you learn a lot in the following podcast and we hope you might be inspired to pick up one or more of the books we are highlighting this year at the University of Louisville’s McConnell Center.
