Community Book Group: Girl, Woman, Other by Bernadine Everisto

Community Book Group: Girl, Woman, Other by Bernadine Everisto

This month's book is Girl, Woman, Other, by Bernardine Everisto. Winner of the Man Booker Prize 2019. Girl, Woman, Other follows the lives and struggles of twelve very different characters. Mostly women, black and British, they tell the stories of their families, friends and lovers, across the country and through the years. Joyfully polyphonic and vibrantly contemporary, this is a gloriously new kind of history, a novel of our times: celebratory, ever-dynamic and utterly irresistible.
The book group meets on the second Wednesday of each month, and is open to everyone, whether you've read the book or not.
