## Details

Hello everyone,
Our book for June will be Orlando by Virginia Woolf.

First masculine, then feminine, Orlando is a young sixteenth-century nobleman who gallops through the centuries, from Elizabethan England and imperial Turkey to Virginia Woolf’s own time. Will he find happiness with the exotic Russian princess Sasha? Or is the dashing explorer Shelmerdine the ideal man? And what form will Orlando take on the journey – a nobleman, traveller, writer? Man or . . . woman?

Please read the book if you are coming (this seems obvious, but we have had people who hadn't read the book at all, it will be difficult to enjoy the discussions if you don't, it's ok if you haven't finished it!)
For newcomers, our event flow goes like this:
1. Get your seat and order drinks/food
2. Greetings and Introductions
3. Start the discussion (little summary of the story, characters etc)
4. Questions, answers, more questions...
5. Average score
6. Free talk
