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.

Next meeting: 16th February 2010 at 8 pm

Book that will be discussed:

GIOVANNI'S ROOM by James Baldwin (available at our bookshop)

Participation at the reading group is free of charge; if you would like to join us, please send an email in advance to info@libreriameltingpot.it, since our space is very reduced.
