Although not always true, it's an old adage whenever a film comes out that the book was better. We'll be putting that to the test with our new book club, where we read the book for a film that is being released around the same time.
If you like pop culture and topical books, this one is for you!
In July we will be reading The Odyssey by Homer (translated by Emily Wilson). The film will be released in Norway in July. Book club attendees are encouraged to watch the film after reading the book since we'll also discuss the book in that context.
When: 21 July, 17.30-19.00
