About this event

Indulge in your passion for literature and cuisine at a unique book club where we combine the love of reading with the love of food! Each month, we'll dive into a new book and eat delicious snacks inspired by its themes. From fiction to non-fiction, our diverse selection of books will spark lively discussions as we share our impressions, thoughts, and interpretations. Don't miss out on this opportunity to bond with fellow book-lovers over a shared love of literature and food.

This month we will be reading Excellent Woman by Barbara Pym.

The book details the everyday life of Mildred Lathbury, a spinster in her thirties in 1950s England. Perpetually self-deprecating, but with the sharpest wit, Mildred is a part-time voluntary worker who occupies herself by attending and helping at the local church. Mildred's life grows more exciting with the arrival of new neighbours, anthropologist Helena Napier and her handsome, dashing husband, Rocky.

We will be making English tea sandwiches to accompany our discussion of the book.
