Reading Group

If you enjoy reading and discussing literature please read on for more information about the St Agnes Reading Group

The group currently has eight members, and we are going to take it in turns to choose a book and lead the discussion on it. We're planning to go for very different books to cover a wide range of things so that everyone reads books they might not usually read.  The discussions will be on set dates at the Vicarage at 8pm.

The next three meetings of the book group are:

Wednesday 2nd September
North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell

Wednesday 4th November
Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe

Wednesday 6th January
Testament of Youth by Vera Brittain

If you are interested in our Reading Group you may also find the Culturewatch website interesting.  The website examines issues in the media from a Christian angle and might be a useful starting point for discussion.
