French Fiction Reading Group

To all francophiles of York and North Yorkshire, we invite you to join our new French Fiction reading group!

Every last Sunday of the month, after our doors have closed, we will meet in the bookshop to discuss, in French, the latest novel our group will have read, also in French. Anyone comfortable reading and speaking in the language is welcome to join - our group will be led by our native French bookseller and welcomes all nationalities and backgrounds.

This October, we will be discussing Constance Debré's short and striking novel, Love Me Tender - a bold story of defiance, freedom and self-knowledge. It is a starkly beautiful account of impossible sacrifices asked from mothers.

We have plenty of copies this month’s book in French available in the bookshop - come redeem your voucher, and bonne lecture.

N.B. We have a very limited amount of seats available to our reading groups, if for any reason your plans change, do let us know in advance so that we can offer the seat to the next person on the waiting list!
