Lisa Dillman) (2008/2012) (short story) – October 26th   \n\n\nThe Man Who Knew Infinity (dir. Matt Brown) (2016) (film) – November 16th \n\n\nNever Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro (2005) (novel) – December 14th\n\nYou can read about all these selections (and previous selections) in our what to read/watch list.   \n  \nTo join the Fictional Classrooms Community for Fall 2026:    \nPlease sign up as follows:    \n\n Visit https://groups.google.com/search?q=FictionalClassroomsED (you may be prompted to log in to your Google account)  \n On the right-hand side\, click the small “Join” icon (next to the star) and ask to join group. \n Matthew and Robin will approve your request within 2 working days\, and you will then have access to the group\, including their shared Google Folder and Calendar.   \n\nNote from Matthew and Robin: We approach the Fictional Classrooms program with a “read-what-you-can” mentality. We understand that we can get busy and may not finish readings each month\, but we encourage you to attend each session regardless of how much you have been able to engage with the text or film so we can still have fruitful conversations and build community.
