Description

The Must Read Before You Die Book Group meets on the first Tuesday of every month at 2pm at Dulwich Library, to discuss a book from the '1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die' list. This month it's 'The Inheritance of Loss' by Kiran Desai.

You don't need to do anything special to join - just pick up a copy from the information desk at the library, and come along on the day. You're welcome to join us even if you haven't finished the book, so long as you don't mind spoilers!

If you'd like to join in the discussion, but can't join us on the day, Southwark Libraries Online Reading Group will also be discussing the same book on Thursday 20 March from 6.45pm. For more details of either group, and to join the mailing list to be kept in touch with our reading programme in future, email wes.white@southwark.gov.uk
