Join St Margaret’s House Book Club for an engaging evening of conversation
The St Margaret's House Book Club will next meet on Monday 20th July from 6.30pm when we will be sharing thoughts on Edna O'Brien's August is a Wicked Month.
About the book:
Separated from her husband, Ellen finds herself living alone in a city she dislikes - a place that denies her past and offers no hope for her future. Determined to change her life, she decides to go south in search of sun and companionship.
For 2026, we will read a book written by a female author in each decade from the 1900s to 2010s, in chronological order. For those wishing to get a head start, in June, our book published between 1950-1959 is The Dud Avocado by Elaine Dundy.
