GabrielleDubois And what if one of the authors you name thought: "Ok, my dear readers want to invite me for dinner, let's answer them it's ok for me!" Do you think this author could have dinner for free for the rest of his life? ? 6y

Recalling a real #literarydinnerparty several years ago with Pulitzer Prize winning #poet Henry Taylor. I was living in Iowa farm country at the time, and was so tickled by his shortest poem quoted above. He was absolutely captivating. I could have listened for hours. I've been lucky enough to also hear Wally Lamb & Brett Anthony Johnston. Sticking with the author/teacher theme, I'd love to add Zadie Smith & Toni Morrison to the guest list.

DebinHawaii It sounds like quite the dinner party! 📚👍😀 7y

For my #literaryDinnerParty I'd have it be an all lady affair, where we would talk about the secrets of their genius and art through the female experience. #24in48 @24in48 📚😍✌️📖👩🏽👩🏿👩🏻👵🏽👱🏻‍♀️

EchoLogical As a serious introvert, I'm opposed to most parties but this... 👍👍 7y

#literarydinnerparty Fiction characters or authors? And then I remembered AMS's gentle, generous heroine Mma Precious Ramotswe. For my literary dinner party I'm going to Botswana, where Mma Ramotswe will cook pumpkin stew for dinner, dessert will be Mma Potokwane's fruitcake with red bush tea, and maybe while Mma Makutsi expounds on life, I can bounce Itumelang Clovis Radiphuti on my knee (the only purring baby in Botswana). 🇧🇼

Dragon Sounds idyllic! I would love to join you! 😀👍 7y
