Books and Bridges presents Professor Michael Kelly as he leads a discussion on faith and reason in THE BROTHERS KARAMOZOV, Thursday, July 27, 7 PM, at Weller Book Works!


Books & Bridges is a community institute of ideas and conversation. Our mission is to facilitate discussion on the best of human thought. We explore the wisdoms of the world and apply them to modern life. We have no political, religious or ideological affiliation. In a society divided by uncivil discourse, the beauty of the humanities—novels, history, philosophy, poetry, ethics and epics—lifts us to our better angels. In our busy world we need space for friends and fellow learners to do a little more heart-to-heart and mind-to-mind.

On Thursday, July 27, Russian Professor Michael Kelly will examine the crucible of faith and doubt in Dostoyevsky's classic novel The Brothers Karamazov and shed light on the intense and disturbing spiritual depths of the Russian soul.

Michael Kelly is an Associate Professor of German and Russian at Brigham Young University.
