Exploring Literature

Our book group is a bit different from most, as we all read a different book on the theme of the month.
This year (2026) our themes include “espionage”, “colonialism” and “family sagas”. Authors are Olivia Manning, Clare Chambers and Natasha Solomons.

We are full at the moment (March 2026)


So you can see the variety or topics, in 2024 our themes included “Lost”, “Classics reimagined” and “Books set in Spain”. Authors were Amanda Craig, Penelope Lively, Melvyn Bragg and Rachel Cusk. In 2025 subjects include “Irish writers”, “Music”, short stories and books by Pat Barker, Matt Haig and PD James.
