SCPL's Adult Book Club will be meeting on March 16 at 6pm to discuss Werner Herzog's new book, "The Future of Truth". Copies of the book will be available beginning on January 12.

SYNOPSIS:

In this short sequel to his acclaimed memoir, the legendary filmmaker and global cultural icon explores one of his favourite the nature of truth.

What if a lie is told to reveal some underlying truth? Are feelings that seem inappropriate, such as the hysteria following the death of a celebrity, any less real or true than the grief we feel over the death of a loved one? Even if the plot of an opera seems preposterous, can’t it still express strong human emotions that ring true with the audience?

At the heart of the book lies Werner Herzog’s concept of ‘ecstatic truth’ – a truth that is often hidden behind the facts and our conceptions of reality but can be gleaned through the poetic imagination, in art, literature and cinema, when we open ourselves up to an aesthetic experience.

Written in Herzog’s inimitable tyle, the stories, anecdotes and reflections take us from present-day deep fakes and the opportunities and perils of AI to Ancient Egyptian and Rome, where rulers resorted to lies and propaganda in the same way as governments do today; from Scott’s and Amundson’s race to the South Pole to alien abduction stories and the making of Herzog’s own films.

Join the “Chapter Chat” book club and freely discuss books you're currently reading, give and receive recommendations, and enjoy a lively discussion!
