Book Club meets approximately every 6 weeks, with the books for discussion alternating between contemporary award winning fiction, and more classic works. A popular genre in 2025 has been “returning to books we read when younger.” Future books the group have identified for 2026 are The Lost Daughter by Elena Ferrante, The Tattooist of Auschwitz by Heather Morris and Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen.
The next meeting will be held on Wednesday 28 January, to discuss Perfection by Vincenzo Latronico. Superbly translated by Sophie Hughes, Vincenzo Latronico’s Perfection is a taut, spare sociological novel about the emptiness of contemporary existence, scathing and brilliantly affecting. The Times Book of the Year 2025 and winner of multiple other awards.
