RISC Bookclub we read and discuss one classic or groundbreaking 'world' novel each month - join us!

RISC bookclub began in September 2006 and has had a fantastic group of people supporting it ever since. It is linked to the World Shop bookshop, who stock all of the titles that the bookclub chooses to read and offers the public a discount for whichever title the bookclub is reading that month.

The bookclub meets once a month to discuss new and classic International fiction. We aim to support the work of authors from Africa, Asia, South and Central America and the Caribbean, by reading their novels and poetry, some of these authors do not get major press recognition or support, so there are often titles that might seem obscure, which we all think is a good thing! Sometimes titles by these inspiring authors do get recognised in the mainstream bookshops, which is also fantastic, and so you will see a mix of books that you will have heard advertised in the press, and some that haven't.

To join the bookclub and be added to our mailing list, please contact liz@risc.org.uk, See what we are reading next....
