Monthly Book Club: Leonard and Hungry Paul by Rónán Hession

Welcome to the Monthly Book Club, the discussion edition of Budapest Silent Book Club.

In Moby-Dick, Ishmael describes “a damp, drizzly November in my soul”. This November, let’s read something warm and pleasant to keep that feeling at bay.

Our next book is Leonard and Hungry Paul by Rónán Hession
a gentle, funny novel about two quiet friends, everyday kindness, and finding your place in the world.
