W- Revisiting the Classics

This group offers the opportunity to re-read books and reflect on them, noting how one’s feeling about them may have changed over time. However, it is also a chance to “visit” a well-known author or novel, British or otherwise, for the first time and catch up on “essential” reading.

Titles are proposed by members, who will have the opportunity of introducing a book each month, as well as taking part in the general discussions. This year we are choosing novels not less than 50 years old.

Meetings take place on the 4th Friday of the month, from 2.00 till 4.00pm, starting on September 24th . There is no meeting in December or August.

From September we hope to meet in the Friends Meeting House, York.

New members are welcome.

Please refer to the website on the right for further information and to see what novels we have read in previous years
