Another nice outdoor meet up last time, though only a few of us had managed to get hold of the Freak and the Idol. The book for next time is The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver. We were going to meet on 5th August, but it turns out that Lis can't make that day so it's going to be the 29th July after all. We'll be in Mango Landin from about 7.30, talking about the book from around 8.00.
The runners up were:
Andrea Dworkin - Pornography
Abraham Verghese - Cutting for Stone
Joseph Heller - Picture This
Aravind Adiga - White Tiger
Steve Toltz - A Fraction of a Whole
See you there!
