The Book Club

When

Event Status

The Wheeler Centre is delighted to partner with the Centre for Adult Education (CAE) Book Groups the largest network of organised book clubs in the country.

The days when reading was thought of as a solitary activity are long gone. Sure, curling up alone with a book is all well and good, but the real fun kicks in when you get a chance to talk about what you’ve read with other book-lovers. In partnership with CAE Book Groups we’re offering our own occasional book club – this is your opportunity to join us to discuss a set book with fellow readers and the incomparable Alan Brough.

Join us for The Elegance of the Hedgehog by Muriel Barbery.
