Brockholme Road Book Club

The book club met tonight and discussed Louis de Bernieres book "Birds Without Wings". The universal view was that this was a great book, one of the best that the club has read todate. The sweep of history mingled with the lives of individuals was both informative and enjoyable. The characters were utterly believable and even the history bits were manageable.

The next meeting of the book club is on Friday 24 November at Joy's house, 1 Brockholme Road. The book is Mirriam Toews novel "A Complicated Kindness". Other books mentioned for future meetings were "Arthur and George" by Julian Barnes and Maggie O'Farrels' "The Vanishing Act".
