English Reading Group

We run an English Reading Group that meets monthly at our bookshop on Tuesday evenings from 8 pm to 10 pm. The reading group is open both to mother tongue expats and to people who speak English as a foreign language. Our group leader is Tobie Pettitt.

Book that will be discussed:

BROOKLYN by Colm Toibin (Ireland) - available at our bookshop
