Book Club is going IRL on 25th May and we can’t wait for you to join us!
Meet us at Mercato Metropolitano where we’ll be diving into Brandon Taylor’s debut novel, ‘Real Life’ - a story exploring some of the experiences of Wallace - a Black, gay postgrad from America’s Deep South - whilst studying for a PhD at a predominantly White university.
Part autobiographical, part fiction, Real Life explores themes of grief, violence, racism and romance, taking the reader through a weekend of life in Wallace’s shoes.
Longlisted for the 2020 Booker Prize, this ‘psychologically compelling and incisively satirical’ (Anthony Cummins, 2020) debut will give us lots to discuss!
