Gower Street's Smatter of Fact Book Club

Are you looking for your next non-fiction read? Join us for our very own non-fiction book club, Smatter of Fact!

This month, we will be reading Can Socialists be Happy? by George Orwell

No thinking person can or does genuinely keep out of politics, in an age like the present one

Unfailingly wise and often startlingly prophetic, George Orwell’s essays are masterpieces of plain English prose. This stirring new collection brings together his most cherished pieces with lesser-known gems, ranging over everything from tree planting to living with the atom bomb, sleeping rough to the perils of getting what you want in politics.

Tickets cost £5 and include a drink. Ticket-holders will also be entitled to a 10% discount on the following month's book club book when you purchase it from Waterstones Gower Street.

Book early to avoid disappointment, spaces are limited!
