What we’re about
Welcome to the book club!
Our style is informal, drop in and out as you please, and non-conformist so there is no required reading. It’s up to you what you bring to the table. We talk about fantasy one moment and philosophy the next. All books are welcome but around the table there ought to be a balance struck between books written purely for entertainment, on the one hand, and literature and non-fiction with some complexity, on the other. We will discuss the psychological, philosophical, political, historical, social and cultural themes and issues that arise from the text (depending on the book), so do expect us to regularly have broader discussions about society. Open-mindedness and critical thinking are key here.
True to our informal style, you do not necessarily have to read a book. If you have seen a great film that’s left a lingering impression, a series or documentary, read an essay, done independent research, or are absorbed in a podcast, please feel free to talk about that instead. These are just as worth talking about as books.
If you're a millennial and love chatting about books and ideas then pop in, have a coffee and tell us about it :)
