Reading Club list 2021
Added 2021-02-09 19:03:10 +0000 UTCHi everyone, we've now defined our Reading Club list for the rest of 2021, so you get can planning and reading. The recordings happen at the end of each month, specific dates TBC.
It's a good mix of politics, society and culture, and all of the works are accessible. Plus the majority are essays or book chapters, so the reading isn't too onerous. There are only three full books (**) and none of the readings exceeds 200pp in one month, with most being around 20 pages.
Happy reading!
