Book Challenge: opening of the Philosophical Book Club (Russia, Petrozavodsk)
Why “Book Challenge”?
We offer to read and discuss difficult books – such that everyone has heard about, but not everyone dares to take and read. After all, it’s hard to read that books quickly and they not immediately reveal important aspects. To uncover all their layers of meaning, you need courage and perseverance, active work of the mind. But it is they who are included in the lists of the best books of mankind and help to understand yourself and life more deeply, to expand the horizons of consciousness.

What is the goal of the Philosophical Book Club?
We want it to unite people who love to read and become a meeting place with the best ideas of mankind, to become a space of positive change.
Where did we start?
With “Odyssey”. Because it is one of the oldest philosophy textbooks. And it is devoted to an incredibly relevant topic – the topic of a person’s return to himself, the acquisition of individuality and strength. It is in this, philosophical, key that we read this book all summer. At the same time, we use the method of slow reading: it develops mindfulness, the ability to ask questions and look for answers, helps to read in details and, most importantly, to extract valuable advice for your daily life.
Book challenge accepted!
