Generally, book clubs seem to be an all, or a nearly all women affair. In an effort to redress the balance, Alan has started a book club for gents.
Hopefully it will give us an opportunity to chat about some great books in a relaxed pub environment. There is no pressure to say anything if you don't want to. The book club takes place on the first Tuesday of each month at 8pm in The Golden Lion pub, Leyburn.
We read a mix of books, and have just started on an exploration of classics.
Please email info@thewonkytreebookshop.co.uk if you would like to join us, or pop into the shop and let us know in person.
The only rules for our book club - please do buy the book from us and a drink from the pub (beer is optional!)
On 1 February, 1910, vivacious music-hall performer, Belle Elmore, suddenly vanished from her north London home, causing alarm among her circle of female friends, the entertainers of the Music Hall Ladies’ Guild who demanded an immediate investigation. They could not have known what they would provoke: the unearthing of a gruesome secret, followed by a fevered manhunt for the prime suspect: Belle’s husband, medical fraudster, Dr Hawley Harvey Crippen.
Hiding in the shadows of this evergreen tale is Crippen’s typist and lover, Ethel Le Neve – was she really just ‘an innocent young girl’ in thrall to a powerful older man as so many people have since reported?
