Book Club Reviews

The Club meets on Mondays at 2.30pm at the Theatre Royal, Theatre Street Norwich NR2 1RL

Monday February 23rd   Lost Villages of Norfolk. Cameron Self (as this is a slim work, Stephen Wade's Lost to the Sea, on Norfolk & Suffolk, or Deserted Villages of Norfolk by Davison would be good companion pieces)

Monday April 13th   Matthew Williams, Masterful Mister Collins, City Engineer

Monday May 25th   Sylvia Townsend Warner: The Corner that Held Them and/or The Flint Anchor. There’s also the Claire Harman biography of her.

Threads, the book about John Craske by Julia Blackburn, also has some coverage of STW.
