DFNY meetings are being held via Zoom from 1-4PM. All are welcome! For the link to connect to our Zoom meetings contact admin@dickensnewyork.com
We invite you to read and discuss our current title, The Mystery of Edwin Drood, by Charles Dickens.
The format of our Zoom and in-person meetings is as follows:
The meeting begins promptly at 1PM with a welcoming and a few announcements. The meeting is then turned over to Mark Halperin,
our Honorable Vice-President and Discussion Moderator. Each chapter scheduled for a particular meeting is then presented by a different member of the Fellowship followed by questions for discussion. Members volunteer to give their excellent presentations and the DFNY is most grateful for their professionalism and willingness. There is a 10 minute comfort break midway through the presentations. Upon conclusion of the discussion, the meeting is closed.

The Dickens Fellowship of New York and its members seek to keep the memory and study of Charles Dickens alive in New York City. The organization has aspects of a literary society or book club but includes much more as the name Fellowship implies. Our meetings include social events and group outings. Members are kept apprised of cultural programs in New York City and the tri-state area that relate to Dickens and his Victorian era.
