About this Event
Joining hands to bring joy and build bridges across cultures and countries
READ 1 BOOK OR BOTH! - YOUR CHOICE!
Book No. 1: AMERICANAH by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
Through the story of Ifemelu, who leaves Nigeria for university in the United States, Americanah explores identity, belonging, race, immigration, love and what it means to find your place in a world that sometimes sees you differently than you see yourself.
Book No. 2: THE DICTIONARY OF LOST WORDS by Pip Williams
Set in Oxford between 1884 and 1928, spanning the late 19th century through the women's suffrage movement and World War I.
Have you ever wondered about the words that never made it into the Oxford dictionary—and who decided which words mattered enough to be included?
It is a beautiful exploration of language, history, women, love, loss and the extraordinary power of words.
It was also selected for Reese Witherspoon’s Book Club…so I think we are in very good company!
Will you join us?
