The
Reading Circle
We welcome people who love reading and want to share their love, whether
they are full of opinions or want to develop some.
Most
of what we read is contemporary, almost always novels, but we occasionally
include poetry or biography, and each year we cover one classic.
If
you live in the region, join us, any time. But try to make our October
meeting: that's when we draw up a list of books for the rest of the
season.
Some of
the books we have discussed in the past are:
The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold
The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver
Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Angela's Ashes by Frank McCourt
Atonement by Ian McEwan
A Fine Balance by Rohinton Mistry
The Amber Spyglass by Philip Pullman
The Human Stain by Philip Roth
Unless by Carol Shields
Birthday Letters by Ted Hughes
Georgiana Duchess of Devonshire by Amanda Foreman
Our Mutual Friend by Charles Dickens
When
and where to find us
We meet during term-time, at 7.30 on the second Tuesday
of the month at the University of Northampton, Park Campus, Boughton
Green Road. Click on the road and campus maps in the left-hand column
for precise details.
