Annual Meeting and Book Discussion
July 18, 2026
Each summer, the Council holds a brief annual meeting, board elections, and then the pièce de resistance: a book discussion!
2026 GBSF Annual Meeting & Book Discussion
Saturday, July 18, 2026
10:00 am to 1:00 pm (Pacific)
via Zoom
Please join The Great Books Council of San Francisco for a brief business meeting, where we'll elect the board, and then do what we like to do most: have a book discussion!
This year we'll discuss Bonjour Tristesse by Françoise Sagan, which The New Yorker calls a "masterly portrait." It is an internationally beloved story about a precocious teenager's attempts to understand and control the world around her. The paperback (ISBN-13: 978-0061440793) sells on Amazon for less than $10. If you do not already own a copy, we recommend this edition.
This gathering will be held via Zoom. The business meeting will last from 10:00 am to approximately 11:00, at which point we will switch to the book discussion until 1:00.
Of course, there is no fee to attend this meeting. The Annual Meeting is open to anyone who has attended a Northern California Great Books event or discussion group during the past year.
