Adults.

In this year's One Read book, "Migrations," the author presents protagonist Franny Lynch as a woman driven by an instinct that leads her to outlandish and often self-destructive actions. William Woods University English professor Matt Dube will help us explore what it means to talk about instinct and human behavior: can we see it in humans the same way we do in other animals? If we can, how should we reconcile our intentional ambitions with instinctive impulses? If we can't, what does it mean when we talk about our behavior in this way?
