New year, new book - Clockhouse bookclub


Bleats

Recommended Posts

Hello


We are a small, but not entirely perfectly formed, book group. We focus on reading modern novels that are the classics of the future, drinking wine and happily veering onto other topics.


We would love for a few more people to join us. Our next meeting is Wednesday 10 Feb and we are reading the Man Booker winner A Brief History of Seven Killings by Marlon James.


The following meeting as a goodbye to a founder member we are going outside our usual modern brief to read Anna Karenina on Wed 16 March (and ensure that he finishes this before moving to Denmark).


We meet at the Clockhouse at 19.30. DM me for more info.


Nicola

    • These neighbours dislike trees period. They refused to have lost trees replaced by the Estate on our communal green. They don’t like the leaf and seed droppings. These make the grass look ‘messy’. Similarly, they don’t like my policy of leaving the tree leaves where they lie on the grass verge - hence chopping the overhanging branches. It’s like living in the 1950s. My neighbours have three gardeners with leaf blowers who come twice weekly to remove every leaf from their front lawns. Their grass is cut weekly and all the  cuttings put in multiple brown bins. It’s an outdated mindset of the moneyed classes in my view. But sadly, I’m very much in the minority.
