Dry Drayton Book Group
The Book Group meets 9 times a year to discuss literature that is chosen by consensus of the group. The group comprises Dry Drayton residents ranging from those who are new to the village through to a number who have lived in the village for many years. The only requirements for joining the group are that you enjoy reading and discussing your views on what you have read.
The group meets on the second Monday of the month except in July, August and December when there is no meeting. The books that the group has chosen to read and discuss during the rest of 2023 and the early part of 2024 are:
- The Island of Missing Trees by Elif Shafak (September)
- Time Shelter by Georgi Gospodinov (October)
- Death at La Fenice by Donna Leon (November)
- Cuddy by Benjamin Myers (January)
- Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus (February)
- One Small Voice by Santanu Bhattacharya (March)
- Ice Cream by Helen Dunmore (April)
A summary of the group’s discussion about the book of the month is published in the Book Group Blog and the Dry Drayton Newsletter.
