Blah Blah Book Club: February 2026 meetup

This month, we will be reading and discussing The Safekeep by Yael van der Wouden, 2026 Women's Prize Winner, from our International Contemporary category.

BLURB - It is fifteen years after the Second World War, and Isabel has built herself a solitary life of discipline and strict routine in her late mother's country home, with not a fork or a word out of place. But all is upended when her brother Louis delivers his graceless new girlfriend, Eva, at Isabel's doorstep - as a guest, there to stay for the season. In the sweltering heat of summer, Isabel's desperate need for control reaches boiling point. (272 pages)

Happy reading!
