We did an online survey for participants to feedback their preferences and the first book we will be reading is
LOVE IN A COLD CLIMATE by Nancy Mitford.
Originally planned as solely an online activity respondents told us they would prefer a mix of engagement so that is what we will be delivering.
Our first in person meeting will be held at one of our favourite venues in Hackney – NEWINGTON GREEN MEETING HOUSE https://www.ngmeeting.house/ at 2pm on 18 May.
The Book Club will run throughout the next 12 months as a blended online/in person/in pairs activity and findings will feed into our Audio, Digital and Live Heritage outputs.
We will be sourcing second hand books as again we listened to the answers in our survey and 100% of those wanting to take part requested a hard copy rather than online/Kindle version.
We will also share other resources such as Radio drama versions and films.
Anyone can join at anytime and books we have coming up are:
VILE BODIES by Evelyn Waugh
THE WELL OF LONELINESS by Radclyffe Hall
COLD COMFORT FARM by Stella Gibbons
SERIOUS PLEASURES: THE LIFE OF STEPHEN TENANT by Phillip Hoare
THE ENIGMA OF ARRIVAL by V S Naipaul
THE VORTEX by Noel Coward
